I need help to remove and disable the lock on the hard drives with hdparm, i am not savy with command prompt. 

I can unlocked it but didn’t disable the lock so it needs unlocking each boot.

Are you interested in Unraid? Your post doesn't mention Unraid, which is the purpose of our forum.

i installed unraid yesterday.

What does ReadyNAS locked drives have to do with Unraid? How are you planning to use these drives with Unraid?

i am trying to unlock and disable the lock that readynas has put on the drive so i can use with unraid

 

I doubt you'll find many users here with ReadyNAS experience, best bet it to try their forum, e.g. quick google search:

https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS-in-Business/Password-for-Locked-Hard-Drives/m-p/983619/highlight/true#M93821

i dont need anyone with experience with ReadyNAS just with hdparm for Windows.

Still unlikely to find them here, though hdparm is also on Unraid, and should behave the same.

is hdparm an addon in unraid ?

How do you know this is what you need to do in order to use the drive with Unraid?

If you found that information somewhere it seems like the answer to your question would be in the same place.

Try connecting them direct to the motherboard instead of an HBA

whats an HBA ? And i do have them connect to the motherboard via sata.

OK, I make test on a Samsung drive, your problem was incorrect password use.

- With "security disable" disk, then set the password to "TEST" and enable then disable it.

But I note your drive in "frozen", it may be in securtiy erase or other state.

If you can't make it to "not frozen", then you may need let it power-on and don't touch anything for "310min" then check its frozen state.
