Thank you Spildit for this link. I will tried this method but I can't unlock this disk.
So I used this script two times one time I start initial buffer from 0B00 and second time by default 0A30. Genarated file are different.
From both time script created on my computer file __PWD.bin.
Next I tried unlock drive using Victoria.

Code:

13:35:18 : Open file: C:\_DUMPS\__PWD.BIN
13:35:25 : Reset OK
13:35:25 : Get passport... Timeout
13:35:25 : Get drive passport: Drive error!


Unfortuatly disk still have the password.

Maybe the OP could temporarily reconfigure the SATA controller in BIOS for IDE or compatibility mode.

13:31:27 : This drive locked by ATA password!
13:31:27 : Send password from file: __PWD.BIN. Type: USER, level: HIGH

I used another PC becuase Victoria didn't saw disk during my fist attampt. And using Victoria I sent password to drive.

Thank you Spildit and fzabkar for your help.
