Manage Disk Clear disk Select the Clear disk item to disable using an external device for
job storage. Job storage is normally enabled only for the Boot
device. This will be grayed out unless the 99.09.68 error is
displayed.
Lock Disk Select the Lock Disk item to lock (mate) a new secure disk to
this product.
The secure disk already locked to this product will remain
accessible to this product. Use this function to have more than
one encrypted disk accessible by the product when using them
interchangeably.
The data stored on the secure disk locked to this product always
remains accessible to this product.
Leave Unlocked Select the Leave Unlocked item to use a new secure disk in an
unlocked mode for a single service event. The secure disk that is
already locked to this product will remain accessible to this
product and uses the old disk's encryption password with the
new disk.
The secure disk that is already locked to this product remains
accessible to this product.
Clear Disk Pwd Select the Clear Disk Pwd item to continue using the non-secure
disk and clear the password associated with the yet-to-be
installed secure disk.
CAUTION: Data on the missing secure disk will be permanently
inaccessible.
Retain Password Select the Retain Password item to use the non-secure disk for
this session only, and then search for the missing secure disk in
future sessions.
Boot Device Secure Erase Select the Secure Erase item to erase all of the data on the disk
and unlock it if required.
This might take a long time.
NOTE: The system will be unusable until the system files are
reinstalled. The ATA secure-erase command is a one-pass
overwrite, which erases the entire disk including firmware. The
disk remains an encrypted disk.
Erase/Unlock Select the Erase/Unlock item to cryptographically erase all data
on the disk and unlock the disk to allow a user to gain access to
it from any product.
NOTE: The system will be unusable until the system files are
reinstalled. It erases the encryption key. The encryption key is
erased, so the disk becomes a non-encrypted disk.
Get Status This item provides disk status information if any is available.
