[Avid-L2] Re: OT: bypassing fingerprint lockout

 

From Macworld review:

"But here's the problem: Since your files are not encrypted, someone could access them by simply removing the drive mechanism and placing it in another computer or enclosure, then scanning it with a utility such as Prosoft Engineering's Data Rescue X ( , May 2004 ). Other annoyances: You can't use it as a startup drive, nor can you disable the fingerprint feature. This can be a hassle if you want to send the drive to someone else (say, a client in another state) and that person's print is not registered."
