Toshiba PX04SVQ160B SAS SSD Reformat Failed

[Mohamad5thstar]

hi every one. can you guide me how to solve following issue:


sg_format --format --size=512 /dev/sg1 -v
NETAPP X365_TPM3V1T6AMD NA04 peripheral_type: disk [0x0]
PROTECT=1
<< supports protection information>>
Unit serial number: 9670A06MTWSC
LU name: 500003974c88ba58
mode sense(10) cdb: [5a 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 fc 00]
Mode Sense (block descriptor) data, prior to changes:
Number of blocks=3125627568 [0xba4d4ab0]
Block size=520 [0x208]
mode select(10) cdb: [55 11 00 00 00 00 00 00 1c 00]
mode select(10):
Fixed format, current; Sense key: Data Protect
Additional sense: Access denied - no access rights
Sense_key: 0x7 unexpected
MODE SELECT command: Data protect, type: sense key; write protected media?

------

sg_readcap -l /dev/sg1
Read Capacity results:
Protection: prot_en=0, p_type=0, p_i_exponent=0
Logical block provisioning: lbpme=1, lbprz=1
Last LBA=3125627567 (0xba4d4aaf), Number of logical blocks=3125627568
Logical block length=520 bytes
Logical blocks per physical block exponent=3 [so physical block length=4160 bytes]
Lowest aligned LBA=0
Hence:
Device size: 1625326335360 bytes, 1550032.0 MiB, 1625.33 GB

Solved!
My Setup is an Avago 9207-4i4e SAS controller IT-Mode.
With ubuntu 24.04.2 server
sedutil and sgutils installed.
I had do a PSID revert with sedutil-cli command:
sedutil-cli --yesIreallywanttoERASEALLmydatausingthePSID <PSID printed on the disklabel> /dev/sdc
after this the reformat with
sg_format --format --size=512 /dev/sdc
