If ATA password, what it the drive model?

Thanks. We tried using brute force , estimated time required to crack 9 character password was 6 months. A very sophisticated server bank with multiple GPU's may make process faster , so its not practical to crack password with traditional way.
Even the most expensive solutions costing US$ 5500 do not support powerpoint. Online password decrypion services like decryptum also do not support powerpoint.
Only solution is to know how & where password is stored & somehow decode it. I have been told that MSoffice 2007 uses 128 bit RSA encryption and even all of the worlds computation power is combined , it will take ages to decode it.
