Harddrive Password Protection?

Dell have a security facility in the BIOS for setting harddisk passwords. Do HP not have a similar thing?

NO.
We have admin Password for the BIOS only.

Why would u need a password for HDD in BIOS ? Whats the purpose ? I believe the main admin password for the BIOS serves the purpose of securing BIOS settings.
Please help me understand, I have no idea about dell servers.
