The drive came in with a damaged PCB. I've gotten past that, but am now confronted with a locked drive. The latest PC3000 doesn't have a specific utility for the MHZ series drive and I'm curious to know if anyone has tried to unlock this series of drive with the MHX or MHW family. If I cannot get an answer, I'm left sourcing a drive just for to test it before I try with the client drive.

Can anyone help me out?

1. It is possible to unlock the drive ("Yes we can" ©Mr. Obama)
2. There is no commercial tools to unlock it (so far)
3. It is complicated process
4. No, I am not sharing the info

I'll just get the client's system and use it to quickly remove the password.

Luke, I had the exact same problem last week, turned out to be a hell of a lot easier to get the clients hardware to remove the PW.
