Changing Hard Disk Drive Passwords
To change hard disk drive passwords, enter the System Security Setup, highlight Internal HDD
Password and enter the current password that you wish to change. If you enter the current master
password, you are prompted to enter a new master password. If you enter the current user
password, you are prompted to enter the new user password. If you do not wish to establish a
new master or user password, press
Esc
instead of entering a new password. Save your changes
and exit BIOS setup.
Using Hard Disk Drive Password Protection
To facilitate the transfer of one or more HDDs between systems, establish a single master
password (and store the password in a secure place). Forgetting your master password results in
the inability to access the data on your hard drive. Establish different user passwords to limit
access to specific systems.
If you set the master and user password on a hard drive, the
passwords can never be removed. They 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.
With hard disk drive security enabled on the original NEC Versa system, the system boots
normally.
If the hard drive is installed in another NEC Versa system with security enabled, you must enter
the master password to access the hard disk drive. If the hard drive is installed in another NEC
Versa system with security disabled, you are prompted to enter the master password and then a
new user password.
Moving the Hard Disk Drive
When a password protected HDD is moved from its original system and installed in another
system and the system is powered on, error messages appear indicating that the drive is locked.
Next, the Security Setup screen appears requiring the user to enter the master password to
unlock the drive. To unlock the drive, highlight the HDD password line and enter the master
password, when prompted.
If you wish to move an HDD from one system to another, follow steps 1 through 6 in the
section, “Establishing Hard Disk Drive Passwords,” before installing the HDD in a different
system. Install the HDD in the desired system, then follow steps 7 and 8, as desired, to establish
HDD protection.
To take advantage of HDD password protection in another system, the system must be equipped
with the same HDD password protection feature. To determine if the system has HDD
password, check the System Security Setup in the BIOS setup to see if there are provisions for
establishing HDD passwords.
