    Does anyone know how to find out what the password for the harddrive is. My laptop is asking for password for HDD 0 Password. Never had this happen before.

    Generally most hard drives don't have passwords. You may need to reset the Bios to factory defaults to clear it. You may even have to pull the CMOS battery to get it.

    Setting a Hard Disk Password:
    This procedure is for setting password on the HDD.

    1. Start Easy-Setup by pressing and holding F1 and then turning on the computer.
    2. Select Password icon and then select HDD-1 or HDD-2 according to the hard disk type you want to set.
    3. Type your desired hard disk password; then press Enter. You can use any combination of up to 7 characters. Use a combination of any letters or numbers (A to Z, 0 to 9) in uppercase (A) or lowercase (a). Uppercase and lowercase letters are treated the same.
    4. Type your hard disk drive password again to verify it; the press Enter.
