SOURCE: HARDDISK SECURITY PASSWORD FOR WDC

Saw on a forum that this could be the default password.. wdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwd


-put DOS on a floppy disk
-add atapwd.exe to the disk
-turn off the computer & connect your Western Digital hard drive.
-turn on the computer and inset floppy
-type atapwd.exe after A:\
-when the menu loads click on your harddrive
- >Prepare Erase
- >Erase
-enter the password " wdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwdcwd "
-It should come back with an error, press enter and the hard drive name will disappear from the list
-DO NOT RESTART-...Your harddrive is being formatted.
-Let it sit at that screen for 30mins
-Afterwards, press the F5 key(refresh) and the hard drive should reappear on the list
-restart...and it'll be unlocked.

I don't know if that will help your problem but I hope it helps someone. :thumbsup:

THIS WILL DESTROY DATA ON THE HARD DRIVE

How do i unlock my sata port 0 wdc WD5000LPVX -22v0TT0

A sata port does not need to be unlocked. if you are having trouble accessing the hard drive connected to the sata port, there may be issues with what driver is installed. find the driver for your mother board sata ports and re-install it. you can also try connecting it to another computer to ensure the hard drive is not corrupted.

I almost fell out of my chair! lol!
A 320GB SATA harddrive that is 2.5 inches across in width, (Regular laptop size) is W-A-Y cheaper than THAT!
