Still can't unlock this drive, i don't a master password, what must i doing to unlock ... ?
don't have a pc3000 pci... pc3000 isa can do it?

[bigolsen]

When hot swap does not act with these disks ,
then becomes only PC3000 PCI .
PC3000 ISA does not serve these disks !

Sorry my mistake Hitachi is not supported by AFF

I do not think Hot Swap will work because of incompatibility between the NVRAM chips on the PCBs. Using PCI PC3000 and using a Probe to short specific points on the PCB (explained in PC3000 PCI manual) is the onyl sure way to clear this password.

Hello,
I have a : Hitachi laptop hd locked . Tried a lot of software to unlock . Pc3000 is too expensive , is there a way to short the points without the kit and use other software , or alter details of similar hd to hotswap

Unlock ATA password Hitachi Hard Drive
Now I know if hitachi hard drives can be unlocked via a 9000.00 piece of equipment called PC-3000 we also can do it with something readily available to the general public.

It appears that they use a "Probe" which may just be some hardware hack or jumper to cause password flag to be erased when certain code is sent to the drive the force the execution of this code by either applying power or resistance or simply jumping these two pads.

How I think it works:

The probe causes a write flag to be set and allows the password to get over written with a new one or maybe the write head is forced to confirm password from a different location on the hard drive when this jumper is enabled a writeable area thus when request to unlock is preformed the fake location is read password is correct and lock flag gets removed.

Tools needed for testing:
P4 PC with ide drive.
Ultimate boot disk
2.5 to 3.5 ide adapter.
toggle switch
Jumper wire

Hook up toggle switch to 5v power so you can power off and on your hard drive manually.

Hook up drive to PC as the only hard drive on primary and a cd/dvd/bd rom drive on secondary ata.

Set bios to boot from CD first.

Insert ultimate boot cd and load ata password utility on there.

Now we can send info and power down set jumper and power up. If done right we may be able to overwrite the password.

Use this as a guideline for unlocking!

in order to fix ur problem u will need a loan to follow this video too high (cost)

good luck

? the video uses pc-3000 hardware and software , thus the need for a work around as pointed to in my previous point , if its correct all we need to find out what to short the hdd as some things might break the hdd. but if it works then it would probably be 30$ or less . As opposed to the thousands of dollars for 3000 hardware /software .

"That jumper tool in the video, are these resistors, diodes or something else on the board? Just to make sure that a blank wire won't fry the board.."

or just a jumper wire and toggle switch like he advised .

[drc]

The probe doesn't remove the password

[crumb110]

The post indicates other software might work once the points are shorted or even with the software in video . Unless you mean that shorting the points + software isn't enough and a 3rd hardware interaction is required ?

[drc]

Well, you need the hardware in order to use the software in the video.
