Hi Guys,
My friend was using his WD Passport 1 TB External HDD past 1 year and he was not using the encryption software - WD Smartware. However days back suddenly his USB cable was not working properly and he tried something..damn after that that HDD got locked. It now shows as Virtual CD. And to unlock this is asking for password now that he hasn't put.
Please give some solution to unlock the HDD
Please exclude the below idea's
1. Remove the board of the HDD and replace with other - Not possible now
2. Goto Recovery company - Here I have no idea so please exclude
There has to be some override of this encryption but I am not able to search.. Please help
