How to unlock hard drive?

by rappin05 . Updated 17 years, 2 months ago

I bought a hard drive off of ebay.
The seller had tested it with a computer which had some hardware that put a password on it(a raid controller I think.) He sent me instructions on how to unlock it, but they don’t work. I get an error that says: problem issuing unlock command, function not implemented. I tried to just initialize it in windows 7 but it comes up with an I/O device error. I think that it would have to be unlocked with his computer(raid controller), but I was wondering if I could do it without his computer. Is this in any way possible?
Thanks
David
