Hard Disk Drive Passwords
Your NEC Versa LitePad tablet PC allows you to establish password
protection for the internal hard disk drive. Hard disk drive (HDD)
password protection restricts access to the drive, only if the drive is
removed from your NEC Versa LitePad tablet PC and installed in
another system. You are not prompted to enter your hard disk drive
passwords while the drive remains in your current system.
The HDD passwords are written to the system BIOS and to the hard
disk drive to ensure that the password protection travels with the drive
when moved from system to system.
Establishing Hard Disk Drive Passwords
To establish password protection for your system’s hard disk drive you
must establish a master password, establish a user password, and
enable the established passwords for the internal HDD. Follow these
steps to establish HDD passwords and to enable HDD password
protection.
If you set the master and user password on a
hard drive, password security can never be disabled. Passwords can
be changed. If the master password is forgotten and the drive is
installed in another system, you cannot access the data on the hard
drive.
If the hard drive is installed in another NEC Versa system with hard disk
drive security enabled, the password must be entered to allow access
to the hard drive. If this NEC Versa system does not support hard
disk drive security, you cannot access the data on the hard drive.
