To disable drive security, click Yes. MSM disables drive security and returns you to the main menu. NOTE: If you disable drive security, you cannot create any new encrypted virtual drives and the data on all encrypted unconfigured drives will be erased. Disabling drive security will not affect the security or data of foreign drives. A foreign configuration is a RAID configuration that already exists on a replacement set of drives that you install in a computer system. You can use MSM to import the foreign configuration to the RAID controller or to clear the foreign configuration so you can create a new configuration using these drives. To import a foreign configuration, you must do the following:  Enable security to allow importation of locked foreign configurations. (You can import unsecured or unlocked configurations when security is disabled.)  Run a scan for foreign configurations.  If a locked foreign configuration is present and security is enabled, enter the security key and unlock the configuration.  Import the foreign configuration.
