Disabling Security

Attention: If you disable security, your existing data is not secure and you cannot create any new secure virtual drives. Disabling security does not affect the security of data on foreign drives. If you have removed any drives that were previously secured, you still need to enter the password when you import them. Otherwise, you cannot access the data on those drives. If there are any secure drive groups on the controller, you cannot disable security. A warning dialog appears if you attempt to do so. To disable security, you must first delete the virtual drives on all of the secure drive groups.

Perform the following steps to disable drive security:

  1. In the Controller dashboard, select More Actions > Disable Security.
    A warning message appears asking for your confirmation.
  2. Select Confirm and click Yes, Disable Security.
    The software disables drive security.
