Entering a DriveLock password

Be sure that the hard drive is inserted into the computer (not into an optional docking device or external MultiBay).

At the DriveLock Password prompt, type your user or master password (using the same kind of keys you used to set the password), and then press enter.

After two incorrect attempts to enter the password, you must shut down the computer and try again.
