hello everybody

I have my hard drive locked by ATA password

and I need the master password for unlocking it by mhdd program

and I need It quickly

Then you better read quickly and use the search function as all the relevent information is in one or two threads.

hi i was stuck with the same problem which i solve on a WDC250bevt
just a quick list of master pwd i found on my travels

WDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCW <----THIS ONE WORKED FOR ME
WDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWD
&'()*.WDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWDCWD
h2oinsyde <-----for acer drive(but not mine)

if none of the above work then the fun begins
first download MHDD boot disk (google for it)
copy the file i put up on to a usb stick and plug in
remove all drives except locked one
boot the cd and press F5 (safe mode)
type 'c:' to get to the contents of usb drive
then type MHDD to run the program on the usb not the cd as that is wrong version
in MHDD (select drive this might take a little bit of getting use to!)
run the script by typing .dump
the script will run and return "DONE"
remove the usb and look at the 22.bin file with a hex editor
also for a little more understanding read
unlocking-ata-password-for-western-digital-t8374.html
like i did
hope this helps
