Hi guys
Does anyone manage to unlock password on HTS541080G9SA00 using UDMA? I could not get it to work. Only SD could.

Can you access NVRAM to change the Boot Flag? Or maybe try to access SA with different PCB and NVRAM to replace security module?
Have not had ATA locked G9SA so cant really offer much more help im afraid.

Yes i could access NVRAM, what should i change the bootflag to? Currently 0x01.

Make a backup of the NVRAM, then change it to 0x00. this should start the drive from Factory copy which should not be protected. If this does not work I will put ATA password on good drive here and try remove it and let you know.

thanks hddguy, bootflag 00 will not get access to ICES mod, only 4 or 5 RSV mods

I don't think this is correct
You should have access to all SA
