This drive uses MCU encryption
WD10SDRW-11A0XS0-01.01A01-WD-WXL2A81JZZV0-000500AP
Check Module 127.rpm

GPS ,
i will check this in the morning and revert back ,If its encryption then its mcu based right ,Then PBA access method for this will not work at all

Bump,
GPS All Modules 0123 ~ 0127 are like your second image ,So does that mean this is a MCU encryption based HDD from WDC ?

Yes
Well,
SED Was enabled in Mod 02 so when i used to connect this to a usb board it showed file system ,Every sector was zero ,Then if i used sata board sed was still enabled but it showed exactly the same stuff ,How is that possible ,The only thing i can understand is that data recovery guy has installed sata board and formatted hdd ,HDD is 2018 model ,Encryp was not used those time ,why do i get all these lousy cases damn

Amarbir,
I've literally just got the same one in. 2018 Jun - My Passport 1TB WD with WDC WD10SDZW-11UMGS0
I've popped on my Unlock PCB to work on firmware.
SED is on.
I went to check a sector, and the sectors are not encrypted using my non native MCU unlock board which is weird. I was just about to screw back on USB PCB but in the end I didn't need to.
How strange!
