Hi, everybody
I have problem with this HD. I get this disk from Sat Recorder but is password locked. I have ATA terminal but i don't know how to read system area (i know some commands). I have too little experience. Please help me.

You have to take this to a shop who has the right tools to do this one with. they might ask proof of ownership before unlocking this one. Other wise try a search here on forum there was a major thread on WD passwords and how to figure them out and unlock them. If not find your paper work where you purchased this and go to a DR shop and they should do this for you for a small fee.
