I backup some data to a new maxtor one touch III usb drive which use maxtor drive encryption utility. When I need that drive to get some data, I faced a problem that the drive is know well by the computer (device manager) but is not seen totally in my computer. I tried a lot of software to even format or managing the drive anyway but all failed (swissknife, partition magic, paragon, smart fdisk, acronis, Large drive tools), all of them see the disk but can not make any change to it. Some reports that it is locked and others that I can not read/write and some other messages like protected drive. I am sure that the drive is perfect as it is seen rapidly by any computer running any operating system (including linux).
