Unlock IBM DARA-206000

November 11th, 2004, 0:08

Hi all!

I need to fix an IBM laptop hdd, model DARA-2060000 (5Gb) which is locked with a *nasty* password.

The situation:
----------------
* I do not have access to the original notebook
* I do not have access to another drive of the same model/size
* Data in NOT important (onlu drive fixing)
* The drive is with security level = high.
* The user does not know the master neither the user password.

Mhdd lights the PWD led as soon as the drive is identified.

My questions:
-----------------
1 - I know how to unlock the drive if i have the master password for it. Anyone have it??

2 - If not, can the drive be fixed by PC3K IBM utilities or MHDD ??

Any advice will be welcome

Regards,

-BR-
