180 Keeping Your Files Safe Hard disk drive passwords Setting a hard disk drive master password If you choose to set a hard disk drive user password, we strongly recommend that you set a hard disk drive master password as well. If you set a hard disk drive user password and later forget the password or lose your password diskette, YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO ACCESS YOUR HARD DISK AGAIN, unless you've set a hard disk drive master password.
