#DOES SEAGATE SEATOOLS WORK BARRACUDA PASSWORD#
There was NEVER a password needed for booting when the hard drive was in the old PC. Is it the act of changing the computer the drive was in causing the locking? I'm pretty confused. I don't know if I have two different things going on here (Boot & Nuke failure) AND the freeze locking or both the same. Rebooted again and still can't wipe it with Boot & Nuke from UBCD.

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. With Rescue Data Recovery Services, you get: Access to a team of world-class data recovery experts.
