Password for Locked Hard Drives
Hi, The Readynas Pro I have has locked 6 of my hitachi hard drives with a password. Can any one tell me how the Readynas generates it's password to lock it's drives? and how I could save my drives...

If one of the Jedi suggests contacting tech support, it is a good idea to follow their advice.

It was not the storage's fault but UPS's. My main question is there any way to unlock this drive without data loss (redoing everything and put this drive as last expansion to unlock and erase it automatically)? I couldn't fix it with MHDD and hdparm because of the reasons I mentioned before.
