![]() ![]() Rebooted again and still can't wipe it with Boot & Nuke from UBCD. Ran SEATools and it's NOT locked this time. One time, I let the PC start up and got to the Boot Options Menu, unplugged the power from the Seagate drive, plugged it back in and chose to boot from the UBCD in the optical drive. I tried turning off the PC and restating - same situation. However, once it is frozen, it remains locked until a power cycle or hardware reset." I read this article and specifically this line: "The drive can be frozen by the BIOS, the OS, or possibly a software application. Running all these tools from the UBCD 5.1.1 SEATools tells me that the drive is Security Freeze Locked. Boot & Nuke kept erroring out when I tried to wipe the drive. I put it into my utility computer (HP a1310n) on which I do this kind of thing. So, all I wanted to do was take this drive out of an old computer and wipe it using Darik's Boot & Nuke.
