password locked 7200.3 and mhy2120

July 17th, 2009, 4:09

Hi everyone,

I have two, in good order, password protected HDD's:

ST9160411ASG (Momentus 7200.3), and
Fujitsu MHY2120BH

Have tried unlock them, but still unsuccessfully.

Even opened a topic on SD forum in the end of 2008: http://www.salvationdata.com/forum/view ... f=22&t=162
Got many smart hints, but they didn't help.

Question to everybody: is there any solution discovered to unlock these drives (by SD or PC3K)?

Thanks folks!

Data on these drives are not crucial and drives in good condition - just curious is there any solution or not. I'll keep the drives as donors.

To Doomer: I know your black magic :) Hoping that SD and ACE add the solution in their production soon ... so in next six months. Same about MHY.
