WD Elemnts WD10TMVV - the media is write protected

[mmichalll]

Hello,
I have this HDD: WD Elements USB 1023 Device and HDD is WD10TMVV - 11BG7S0
When i connect the HDD to PC via USB finds it installs the driver, and disk seen in Device Manager and in Disk Management.
The disk is not initialized and I will initialize, write "the media is write protected"

I also tried Ubuntu Linux, programs like Low Level Format etc...and all software solutions in this forum and not progress.
thanks for help
Any advice?

If your goal is to reuse the disk, then it's a no-go IMHO. But if you want to recover your data, read here and the 3 pages that follow:
