Chapter 3

Status denition:

• Frozen. The frozen state is the result of a BIOS protective measure. The BIOS

guards drives that do not have password protection by freezing them prior to booting.

If the drive is frozen, a power off or hard reset of your PC must be performed to

proceed with the Secure Erase.

• Locked. SSDs might be locked if the Secure Erase process is either incomplete

or was stopped. This may be due to a third party software that uses a different

password dened by ASUS. You have to unlock the SSD in the software before

proceeding with Secure Erase.
