Why not ? There is a free tool to remove the password from WD drives and most others, but we can’t talk about it in this forum. What if I insert the old hard drive into a desktop 2.5" connection and when I boot the desktop, enter that BIOS and delete the password from there? An end user will use the standard ATA Security feature set to access this password, whereas data recovery professionals will use commercial tools to access the password directly by reading or writing SA MOD 02. In current WD models the password is stored in firmware module #02 in a hidden System Area (SA) on the drive’s platters. Then there are tools such as WDR, etc.Īs for you question regarding an ATA password, it is the same thing as a “HDD password”, at least in your context. SalvationData’s HD Doctor, Ace Lab’s PC3000, SeDiv, and HRT are other commercial tools. As for DFL-DE, I believe it costs around US$500. There is a free tool to remove the password from WD drives and most others, but we can’t talk about it in this forum. Is there any way to delete or access the hard drive password or the WD Scorpio Blue with out taking out the new hard drive, replacing it with the old hard drive and deleting the password and then taking it out and then replacing the new hard drive ? I found HDD Unlock Wizard but that wipes evrything off the disk and I want to recover 170 GB of data. The owner of GetData also believes that I cannot see nor access the old WD Scorpio Blue hard drive because it has the hard drive password on it. I bought an Upgrade to version5 of GetData’s RecoverMyFiles data recovery software and tried to find partitions and recover my files on the old hard drive but it could not find any partitions and any files. Now I cannot access nor see the old hard drive in a Sabrent docking stationand I cannot see it in Computer Management.
I had a hard drive password on the old hard drive which I did not take off the old hard drive.
But I had to put the new hard drive into the laptop and take out the old hard drive. I own an old WX3200BPVT-75ZESTO which is WD Scorpio Blue which came up with “Predicted hard drive failure”,so I bought TrueImage14 software to image it.
