Even if I knew how to do so, no one can give you specific steps here. Sorry for the doubt but for all we know you're "toying" around with a stolen hard disk. Your best bet is to contact Seagate directly for help.

It depends...
If you just enable password protection without setting a password, the defaults can be found using Google (I'm not going to post them here). If you set a password, the only people who can un-lock it are Seagate,
