What is the 'Master-Key'?
Master-key is the essential code to recover HDD data.
If you forget the password you entered on the security HDD or your ZM-
SHE500 get damaged, you can't connect or read any data on HDD. Even
though you connect the HDD to your PC system, your PC can't read anything
at all because it's totally encrypted by AES 256 bit encryption technology.
Master-key is not for individual user. The data can be recovered only by our
special program in our official service centers. To recover HDD data, you have
to visit us with ZM-SHE500 and Master-key.
If you lose Master-key, it's impossible for us to recover your HDD data in any
events. So, you should write down Master-Key and keep it safely, just in case.
Note
If HDD itself gets physical damage, it's impossible to recover any
data on damaged HDD even with Master-key.)
5) Press any button on ZM-SHE500, then Master-key disappears. In Security
mode, LCD shows 'Lock' icon and 'ZM-SHE500' message on it.
