How to remove and unlock hard drive password? Is there any software to recover hard drive disk password? Where to download hard drive password cracker? Is it possible to reset the hard drive password?
According to Lenovo and many other manufacturers’ website, if you forget your hard drive or hard disk password, there is no possible way to reset your password or recover data in the hard disk drive. Basically the hard drive is unusable. However, this is often not true.
Most people are not aware that most hard disk drives have the ability to set a hardware password, just like the Bios password for motherboards, thus making the drive completely inaccessible unless a correct password is provided during the BIOS POST test. Usually these features can only be found in laptops, this is when you set a password on your notebook, the hard drive together with the motherboard becomes locked.
Most experts would say if you forget the original HDD or Bios password (How to reset your BIOS password), there is no way of restoring it by generic system tools. Unlike the Bios password where there is a master key or with the removal of the bios battery, the password is erased from the flash memory thus the settings is restored to factory settings without the password, however, this does not applies to hard disk.
HDD Unlock Wizard is a user-friendly application which allows you to easily remove HDD password. IDE and SATA hard disk drives are supported. Both User and Master password can be removed. Please note that while unlocking, HDD Unlock Wizard will erase and re-certify the drive, meaning to say all data in the disk is lost and not recoverable. HDD Unlock Wizard incorporates proprietary unlocking algorithms which allow removing an unknown HDD password and making hard drive usable again. Download HDD Unlock Wizard now! 2.8MB only!
It may not be possible to recover the hard drive password or to unlock it; however, it is possible to remove the password together with the data, thus making your hard disk accessible and usable again.

i do have a hitachi 40 gig laptop hard drive with very crucial info locked with i password i have lost i realy need help removing it pliz provide a solution sooner than later i know you have
Thank you.
you can search for a password boot disk which will disable the administrator password. There are dozens of these types of programs but one program I recommend is windows password reset 6.0
Download the iso file and burn it to a disk to create the boot disk, that simple.
Configure your pc or laptop to boot in the cd drive, insert the CD and it would boot then just disable the password and restart. Took about 5 minutes for the whole process.
I’ve a Toshiba 12GB drive password-locked containing my son’s photos. Completely forgotten the password. I hope to locate the password but if I can’t I’ll try someone on ebay.com (just type ata password) ata password removal service. It’s not cheap though at about $50. Has anyone used his service before?

I have problem unlocking my laptop hp compaqnx9005. it requires drive lock password and hdd password. what do i do?
don’t lost your money. it is very easy way to unlock the password of any laptop when the password is H.D or bios password it doesn’t matter.
just open you laptop and see one small “jampar” near to battery or next to possessor or next to the fan. it have two “2′ holes and three places for the jamper put from one side to other side slowly don’t worry from anything it doesn’t matter. after put out your battery and switch on without battery and 5 sec ofter off it again after put your battery and on the laptop.
your password will be removed but don’t forget the jamper put it again in the default place.
if any kind happen emil me. but just one time don’t be hangry me.

i cannot believe the stupidity on this page…my god. you cannot take ownership of a drive thats locked and passworded. the only way is to know the password. otherwise, it is garbage.
Everything man made can be un-made. The only thing that can’t be made by man are god’s creation. Simple as that. Yes, a password protected hard disk can be unlocked.

302 gb laptop hdd forgoton password
I have tried to unlock my HD in countless ways. One guy even says to take the unlocked hdd out of the working computer when you’re setting up a HDD ATA password (in bios) and then replace it with the locked one. The bios will not realize that it’s the locked one and will let to change the password. There is one issue though – you could frie both the motherboard and the hdd. So I don’t know…
