I brought a new SSD supporting SED. I want to enable it. But I saw someone said he enabled the function 'Allow OPAL Hard Drive SID Authentication' in uefi firmware, then he enabled Bitlocker. If he disabled the function in uefi firmware, the uefi firmware prompted a information that he must enter DriveLock password and could not enter uefi settings. Unless he unpluged the encrypted SSD. It seems that Windows automatically sets a DriveLock password but it does't tell the user. How to find this password. How to unlock SSD when the message appears.
