Either you figure out what is the password that RedoBackup sets by contacting them, for example (i assume RedoBackup did something like secure erase on the target drive) or you get some tools/scripts to read the password set ON YOUR OWN disk (instead of using passwords from drives of other people).

You can use free tools like HDDSuperTool - http://www.hddoracle.com/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=1327 - to read module 02 and figure out the password, or you can use MHDD script as explained on this thread or you can pay $15 for 30 days use of WDMarvel and unlock the drive with one click :

Regards and good luck.

two people had the same issue with redobackup

https://sourceforge.net/p/redobackup/di ... /28ce1c25/
https://sourceforge.net/p/redobackup/di ... /dcebd388/

two aggreed with your suggestion by using MHDD
could you please provide me with MHDD downlod link? i tried this one

http://hddguru.com/download/software/mh ... 4.6iso.zip

there is only REDME.txt file in the ISO and nothing else.

thank you so muck for helping me.
i am really happy my drive worked again.

i tried the MHDD softwre (i found it in heren boot cd),

two people used the reset in redobackup and had the same issue, but one of them could review the source code of (reset in redo bckup) and found the password to be RESET, but this password could only be used in MHDD

and i did as they tried.

https://sourceforge.net/p/redobackup/di ... /28ce1c25/
https://sourceforge.net/p/redobackup/di ... /dcebd388/

thank you very much for helping me, thanks to the open source philosophy, without it we would be slaves to the big companies where encryption is used for bad technical purposes.

and thanks to all whom support any open source project.

Has anyone ever even tried this with HDDSuperTool, with either the dump mod 02 script, or the dump mod 42 script for the older drives? And if they have, has anyone paid any attention to the screen output from those commands? :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
Feed you like babies I have, and yet no one notices :roll:

Hey people,

Just to inform you that I have successfully unlocked a 2.5" WD HDD with zu.exe

WD3200BUCT-63TWBY0

Motherboard: Intel Board i946 (with C2D E6600 and 2x Samsung 1gb DDR2 667Mhz)
SATA Mode: Legacy
Boot from USB

The other drive I was trying to unlock (wd 500gb) and asked for help in my previous post is unusable - first sector (literally first) is bad, MBR is damaged and irreparable. Actually, it is unlocked and functional, but it is impossible to create a partition

Thanks

If the drive were working properly, you should be able to write to the bad sector and the drive should then reallocate LBA 0 to a spare sector. Are you able to read other sectors? You could use a disc editor such as DMDE.

I didn't try too much. I even have problems with disk initialization - first GPT and then convert to MBR. After that, I am able to make a partition, but it's impossible to format it.

Thanks for the DMDE, but I doubt I will try anything else

My next task is to unlock a Seagate 250gb (st3250310as)
Wish me luck

I know that this is an older thread but I have a WD Sporpio Blue hard drive Model: WD1600BEVT-75ZCT2 that is password protected. I have no idea what the user or Master passwords are. I've tried several things that I have read and do have the 22.bin file. I just don't know how to properly read it and I have tried several hex viewers. Any help is appreciated. I've attached my 22.bin file but changed the ext to .txt to be able to upload it.

It seems wrong. Have you followed correctly the steps for obtaining it ? Please, read again from the start of this thread. Also, does the hdd have only an ATA password, or was it removed from some DVR or similar machine ?

I have questions!

1. laptop broke down, Drive had ATA password. I know the SSD password.

2. I have new laptop where I cant use the drive from old broken laptop. It tells me the password is wrong.
So after reading this thread I think I need to do the key scan codes to ASCII translation.
I pasted it below, do I understand it right how to do it? Can someone check it?

3. I cant run MHDD, the password prompt blocks bootup from USB. Cant go past it.
Can I first boot MHDD and than plug in SATA drive? is it safe to plug it in while PC is turned ON?
My laptop is lenovo 700-15isk.
I also have access to dell laptop but the BIOS pass prompt blocks me from booting MHDD

Code:
password   hexKEYcode    --->        ASCII        DEC
l               26                     &           38
i               17                     ETB         23
n               31                     US          31
n               31                     US          31
1               02                     STX          2
4               05                     ENQ          5
8               09                     BS           8
3               04                     EOT          4

NUM (not sure how old laptop saved password)
1               4F                      O          79
4               4B                      K          75
8               48                      H          72
3               51                      Q          81

What can I do to unlock it? (samsung 840 evo)

I believe the following MHDD script should work:

Code:
; send ATA SECURITY DISABLE PASSWORD command to disable password

reset
waitnbsy
regs = $00 $00 $00 $00 $00 $a0 $f6
waitnbsy
checkdrq
sectorsfrom = disablpw.bin

; disablpw.bin must be 0x200 bytes, padded with 0x00

; word 0 = 0x0000 -> compare user pwd
; word 0 = 0x0001 -> compare master pwd

; words 1 - 16 -> 32-byte password

; Offset(h) 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F

; 00000000  00 00 26 17 31 31 02 05 09 04 00 00 00 00 00 00
; ........
; 000001F0  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

Did you ever manage to get the password removed?

Just posting in case this helps someone else.

I had a WD that was locked but after unlocking and disabling the password with MHDD, the drive still appeared locked after reboot, and then couldn't be unlocked anymore.

The drive was a WD800BB-00CAA1 with master password XBOXSCENE (used in an Xbox).

I used MHDD with the dump2 script as found in this thread to get the password before and after unlocking. The password appeared to be gone after unlocking, but the drive still acted locked and wouldn't let me see the files on it. Someone else on this forum had the same problem however their drive died so they gave up on it. Maybe there are others in the same boat who need help.

I did manage to get the drive unlocked through trial and error, and here's what did it for me:
  • I used HDAT2 (v6.0 beta 5) instead of MHDD.
  • I went into a menu and used the option to dump the password from WD drives (Commands Menu, I think? I'll have to double check and edit this later). That dump function appears to work the same as a couple of the MHDD scripts, but it shows the output right on the screen instead of saving to a file.
  • I went into the Security Menu and after pressing down to go to the next item in the menu, I noticed the red options (Set Password, etc) suddenly turned white. So I set the master password back to XBOXSCENE. The trick, though, seems to be that you also need to set the user password. So I set that to XBOXSCENE as well.
  • I rebooted and went back into HDAT2.
  • I went into the Security menu and unlocked the drive using both the master and user passwords.
  • In the same menu, I disabled both the master and user passwords.
  • I rebooted and went back into HDAT2, and the drive now showed as unlocked!

The first time I noticed that I could set the password, after using the password dump function, I only set the master password. Then I rebooted, went back in, unlocked and disabled the master password, and rebooted. However, that put me back at square one, where I was after using MHDD. So as I said, definitely set the user password as well as the master password.

I think this would work from MHDD as well. I suspect that if you run the dump scripts and then tried to set the password, MHDD would allow you to, just like HDAT2 does after dumping.

I've attached a screenshot comparing 42.bin before and after unlocking using MHDD. Figured that might be of some interest as well. I noticed a couple of other differences aside from the password.

If this helps you, let me know!
