Key points of distinction for DriveLock:
DriveLock is a legacy single user approach
Automatic DriveLock allows multiple user support for DriveLock.
Legacy DriveLock and Automatic DriveLock settings are mutually exclusive.
Auto-DriveLock
When Automatic DriveLock is enabled, the BIOS will automatically generate a user DriveLock password, and the BIOS admin password is used as the master DriveLock password. This Automatic DriveLock feature is tied to the BIOS preboot authentication scheme. On boot the BIOS will first authenticate the user. This could consist of TPM (Trusted Platform Module) pre-boot authentication, a BIOS user password, or a ProtectTools user with their Windows password or other token type such as a fingerprint or smartcard. Once this is done, the BIOS will automatically decrypt the DriveLock user password and unlock the drive.
How to recover when Automatic DriveLock fails
In the case where the user password fails to unlock the drive, the BIOS will display the message saying "Automatic DriveLock was previously enabled on this drive. Please enter the BIOS admin password from when this drive was present." If the BIOS admin password is correctly presented the user will be able to successfully boot and access the drive, otherwise the drive will be locked and a Non-system disk error will be displayed.
Manual DriveLock
The manual DriveLock feature allows a user to type in his/her own passwords. However, this feature only supports one password and in the case where more than one user is sharing the system, they will also have to share the DriveLock password.
How to recovery when DriveLock password is forgotten
If a user forgets the DriveLock password, the BIOS will allow the user to enter the BIOS administrator password to unlock the drive. Successfully entering the BIOS admin password will permit booting and access to the drive, otherwise the drive will be locked and a Non-system disk error will be displayed.
Note: In case where both the DriveLock password and the BIOS administrator password are not available, the drive cannot be recovered. |
