I have read and implemented "How to unlock `WD My Passport Drive` on Linux" - https://blog.bestcoding.net/en/unlock-w ... ive-linux/
This gives the following error -
Code: Select all
Traceback (most recent call last):

(1) Is the drive faulty and I need to return it?
(2) Is there anyway to salvage the drive?
Unfortunately I do not have access to a Windows machine.
Thanks,
