Latitude E6410, UEFI, HDD Password Protected, No Boot Device
I have a Latitude E6410 running Windows 7 64-bit with UEFI mode enabled, latest BIOS (A09). Windows is installed on the Samsung 256GB SSD. No problems until I wanted to password protect the HDD. After enabling a password on the HDD, the system gives an error after POST of No Boot Device Found (perhaps not the exact wording), Strike F1 to retry, F2 to go to setup, etc. If I use F12 to go to the boot manager and select UEFI, Windows Boot Manager, it just cycles back to the boot manager again.
Is this a bug? How do I use HDD password protection with UEFI enabled?

I'm having the same issue with a Precision Workstation 4600... I have yet to find an answer.

I was able to enable the HDD password protection by changing the storage controller mode to "RAID On" in the BIOS (version A09 at the time). I was originally running in AHCI mode; however, there must be (have been) a bug when running with UEFI, AHCI and the HDD password protection all enabled.
I have not attempted to recreate the issue with the current A11 BIOS revision.

FWIW, having this same issue with a Latitude E6320, BIOS Revision A15.
With UEFI boot enabled and the disk controller set to AHCI, the machine doesn't boot if a hard drive password is set.
