| 1175291 | 2011-02-04 10:55:00 | Hi, bought an areca 1260 on ebay just migrated all my data off the drives Im going to use, installed the card but it looks like the old owner changed the default password. Ive tried the "master" password MNO...etc etc but that doesnt work (either in web console or mcRaid utility) Is there any way to wipe or disable the password if you dont know it? (Ive contacted the seller but havent heard back yet) |

| 1175293 | 2011-02-04 22:51:00 | The manufacture default password is set to 0000. The password option allows user to set or clear the password protection feature. Once the password has been set, the user can monitor and configure the controller only by providing the correct password. This feature is used to protect the SATA RAID system from unauthorized access. The controller will check the password only when entering the main menu from the initial screen. The system will automatically go back to the initial screen if it does not receive any command in 5 minutes. Do not use spaces when you enter the password, If spaces are used, it will lock out the user. To set or change the password, move the cursor to Raid System Function screen, press the Change Password item. The Enter New Password screen will appear. To disable the password, only press Enter key in both the Enter New Password and Re-Enter New Password column. The existing password will be cleared. No password checking will occur when entering the main menu. From here www.areca.com.tw Click on Sata Raid Series Manual (top right). |
