Cannot issue security erase enchanced command

0

Good afternoon,

So I uploaded the Hdparm -I log. Basically this drive got locked through a Lenovo bios with a password. Currently at this state: locked, not frozen and with both user and master passwords set. I want to use it normally and the data is not needed. I tried pretty much everything I could find online so I turn to making a post.

I am considering getting a relay switch and making a circuit to power cycle this bastard and brute force unlock it. If someone can help me out would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

it is morning over here ... – Pierre.Vriens – 2019-12-19T07:15:32.587

Are you asking how to crack the ATA security feature set? (i.e. You don't have the password(s)?) – Tom Yan – 2019-12-19T08:34:47.473

As I mentioned above data isn't needed. I just want the drive to be functional again. This requires this password to be eradicated. – Izzy187 – 2019-12-19T09:25:56.243
