If you want to use this drive again you have a few choices on this one.

1. You can take it to a DR company and prove that it is your drive and they can unlock the password on it
2. You can invest in the tools that are used by a DR company to do this one. Note starting prices around 10K
3. I think there is a free program out there if I am not mistaken on this one that might be able to do this one but in so you lose all your data on the HDD once you do this.
4. There has been a lot of discuess on WD password locks here on the forum you can try search and find your answer on this one. Maybe what has been discuess and written in the past might help you out on this one. There is a function here called search try this can find some good results on this one for you.
