Security Device. Choosing Reset to Factory Settings may result in significant data loss.

 

Power-on authentication support (some models) (enable/disable) Controls the power-on

 

password authentication scheme that utilizes the Embedded Security Device. Changing this

 

setting requires turning the computer off and then back on.

DriveLock Security

Allows you to assign or modify a master or user password for hard drives. When this feature is

 

enabled, the user is prompted to provide one of the DriveLock passwords during POST. If neither

 

is successfully entered, the hard drive will remain inaccessible until one of the passwords is

 

successfully provided during a subsequent cold-boot sequence.

 

NOTE: This selection will only appear when at least one drive that supports the DriveLock

 

feature is attached to the system.
