SiI5733 Automatic

Drive Locking

Drives are locked to the storage

processor using the ATA maxi-

mum

security

mode.

This

access control approach pre-

vents all attached drives from

being

read

until

they

are

unlocked. A 128-bit secret key,

which is not accessible to the

host,

is

burned

into

the

SiI5723. This unique password

will lock and unlock all drives

automatically, including cas-

caded drives. This feature

can be used as part of an

overall DRM scheme to lock

a drive or set of cascaded

drives to a single specific

host PC, STB, or DVR.
