    Hello everyone!

    I have a Clevo P650HP6-G and I would like to set its UEFI to unlock the two self-encrypting (OPAL) SSDs attached to it. The stock UEFI, however, doesn't appear to support anything of the sort (there is no "HDD password" pane or similiar)...
    Does anybody here know where I could download (buy?) a modded UEFI for this laptop that supports this feature? The only one that I've found would be Prema's but I bought my laptop from a non-partner shop.

    Prema is not currently offering files for sale but sign up to his website and see if he has a solution later.

    So... I've input my mail into the text field and "succesfully subscribed" to the site, but nothing happens... am I supposed to get a confirmation email?

    I believe so, you will likely see this forum light up too.

    (Hijacking this to ask @Prema if I could please buy a license of his BIOS - I can't seem to find a PM button anywhere :/)
