HD without password, does that work?

Mette_1 · July 31, 2012, 10:39am

I have a new harddrive and to make it unlock itself I had to fill in a password.

I would very much like to use it withourt a password, so I do not have to unlock it everytime.

Can someone please tell me if that is possible and how I make it free of passwords again?

Thank for your help.
