Re: Lenovo G570 Hdd Password Remove
@smali
By looking at the HDD label I'll say it was originally installed in an HP laptop, which may have a custom firmware preventing software tools from working on these drives, as it happens with hard drives installed in ThinkPad laptops which have a custom firmware.
How did you connect the hard drive, was it connected to a Desktop computer using the SATA connector or did you use a USB-SATA adapter? As far as I know you have to connect the hard drive directly to motherboard using the SATA connector, USB adapters will not work.
With the information you have provided I will advise to get a replacement HDD; but if you have important data you want to recover I suggest to post all this information in one of the forums I suggested, where there are users who repair HDD's for a living and will quickly tell what are your options.
