I was given a western digital my passport by a friend (no clue where he got it, he might have found it), and id like to use it. Problem is, after getting the password wrong so many times, i never get the option of formatting it. I could care less about the data already on there, but now I cant see another way in without bypassing the password protection. So, Im curious, where is the password stored on this thing? I dont want anyone to tell me how to crack the password, im just wondering where and how the passeord protection on here works... Ill go from there.
OR, if anyone knows how i can format it WITHOUT the prompt (after guessing the password wrong so many times), that would be even better. But, Id still be curious about the protection.
