Salavaged SSDs


Recommended Posts

I recently bought an old HP Gen 8 server from a mom and pop architecture firm going out of business

The hardware itself is nothing special but inside i was shocked to find 8 2TB Samsung Pro 850 SSDs

What a find for a 500 bucks

But their previous IT guy for some reason locked each drive with a password

I've tried a bunch of things to crack these dries open

I don't want any of the data at all just hoping to utilize the drives for my home server

I thought I would put the question to the experts who always help me in the past with server questions :)

Anyone know a way to get into an 850 SSD that has a hard drive password on it?

More than willing to part with one as payment if someone can assist

Thanks! i'll try the link again (i did find that link when this journey began)

Yeah I've been spending a good while in google world for this

I've tried PSID reverting, tried ultimate boot cd, sedutil, magic magican

It looks like it's ata locked and that's where things get a little tougher
