Solve : Hard Drive Locked? |
|
Answer» I have Western Digital hard DRIVE that has recently stopped working. It was originally in an external enclosure but now, nothing detects it. So, I took it out and put it into one of my computer's free HDD slots. I booted up the computer and it STILL was not detected. However, a message popped up that said: "One of your hard DRIVES is password protected. Please enter the correct password: " I was LIKE ! Where the heck had the password come from!? I tried all the basic passwords, but none WOULD work. I know that asking for how to remove a password is hacking, so here is my question: I just want to wipe the drive completely clean, so how do I do that? I got the Western Digital Low Level format utility, but can I format the utility without knowing the password? Can I clear something on the hard drive similar to a computer's CMOS?Where did you really get this hard drive from? |
