Identifying HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection status
The drive light on the computer turns on to show that the drive is parked. To determine whether drives
are currently protected or whether a drive is parked, select Start > Control Panel > Mobile PC >
Windows Mobility Center:
●
If the software is enabled, a green check mark is superimposed over the hard drive icon.
●
If the software is disabled, a red X is superimposed over the hard drive icon.
