Product: HP EliteBook 840 G5 Base Model Notebook PC
Hello HP Support,
I have found a bug in the current BIOS release of HPs Elitebook 840 G5, 01.23.00 Rev.A.
According to this document, drivelock password is only needed on a cold boot:
https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01674996
but restarting the device prompts for drivelock password after restart.
Please HP, release a fix for this issue.
Hardware:
m.2 SATA, SanDisk X400, M.2, SD8SN8U-512G
