Hi all. I was recently asked to look at an IBM Travelstar 48 gig laptop drive that came out of a Dell. Both the laptop and drive were password protected and we are trying to figure out how to unprotect the hard drive. The laptop was purchased legally and there was no impropriety involved, but the seller did not provide the necessary passwords. Any help on the hard drive would be great. I have used IBM/Hitachi's software to try to write zeros to the drive, but for some reason the password won't allow the drive to be accessed. Thanks for all the help in advance.
