[The Computer Hardware Technician] Re: Hello, I have a problem qith a locked hard drive

 

I googled and found this:
"Unlocking Seagate Hard Drives"
(http://www.seagateunlock.com/)

Don't know if you've tried that.

Here's more, though I only looked at the first link offered, there may be something else that you'd find useful:

I've an old seagate 160Gb sata drive that came out of my old tv on demand box-I've tried to connect it to my pc but it turns out that it's locked and the master and user password has been changed. My local pc repair shop says they'll unlock it for £20 but they also offered me a replacement for £15.
