Identifying HP 3D DriveGuard status The drive light on the computer changes to an amber color to show that the drive is parked. To determine whether drives are currently protected or whether a drive is parked, select Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > 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 white diagonal line is superimposed over the hard drive icon. ● If the drives are parked, a yellow moon is superimposed over the hard drive icon. NOTE: The icon in the Mobility Center may not show the most up-to-date status for the drive. For immediate updates after a change in status, you need to enable the notification area icon. To enable the notification area icon: 1. Select Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > HP 3D DriveGuard. NOTE: If prompted by User Account Control, click Yes. 2. On the Icon in system tray row, click Show. 3. Click OK. If HP 3D DriveGuard has parked the drive, the computer will behave in the following ways: ● The computer will not shut down. ● The computer will not initiate Sleep or Hibernation, except as described in the following Note.
