Hi,
On an Intel SSD DC S3700, the master password revision code is different from 65534, so the master password has been changed. The drive is also locked by a user password. Neither the master password nor the user password is known to me.

It is therefore not possible to reset the SSD using the ATA secure erase command.
Similarly, the
- Code:
intelmas delete -intelssd 0
command returns an error. Solidigm's sister tool, sst, returns exactly the same error message.
Without the user and master password, is this SSD simply bricked, or is there a way to reset it so that it can be reformatted with a new file system? Older threads explain how to script MHDD to read a memory dump from the controller of some older HDDs. As a last resort, is a similar method still applicable on a more modern SSD, such as this one from Intel?
Thanks for your advice.
