IMPORTANT:  MegaRAID Adapters (LSI 9361-8i) support SED (Self-Encrypting Drives) using a security key and optional passphrase. The passphrase option is currently not supported on Power platforms and MUST NOT be used. Setting a passphrase will make the adapter unusable. The only way to recover the adapter will be to install the adapter in a system that supports this feature, enter the passphrase from the BIOS, then remove the passphrase.
