DriveLock involves a user password and a master password:
■ A hard drive protected by DriveLock can be accessed with
either the user password or the master password.
■ You can delete a user password or master password only by
removing DriveLock protection from the drive. DriveLock
protection can be removed from the drive only with the
master password.
■ The owner of the user password should be the day-to-day
user of the protected hard drive. The owner of the master
password may be a system administrator or the day-to-day
user.
■ A user password and a master password can be the same
word.
✎
When you start the tablet PC from a hard drive protected with
DriveLock, and your power-on and DriveLock passwords are
identical, you will be prompted to enter only a power-on
password instead of both a power-on and a DriveLock password.

CAUTION: If you forget the DriveLock user and the DriveLock master
passwords, the hard drive is permanently unusable.
Ä
CAUTION: To prevent system lockup and loss of information:
■ Shut down the tablet PC before removing the hard drive from the
hard drive bay. Do not remove the hard drive while the tablet PC is
on, in Standby, or in Hibernation.
■ If you are not sure whether the tablet PC is off or in Hibernation,
turn the tablet PC on by pressing the power/standby switch to the
left or right. Then shut down the tablet PC through the operating
system.
