Note: The brute force limitation is defaulted to initial shipment state values when the drive is completely reset,
or self-destruct feature is activated, or brute forced. If Admin changes the User PIN, or a new User PIN is set when activating
the recovery feature, the User PIN brute force counter is zeroed (0) but the brute force limitation is not affected. If Admin
changes the Recovery PIN, the Recovery PIN brute force counter is zeroed.
Successful authorisation of a certain PIN will zero the brute force counter for that particular PIN, but not affect the other PINs
brute force counter. Failed authorisation of a certain PIN will increase the brute force counter for that particular PIN, but not
affect the other PINs brute force counter.
