G50-70 HDD lock sata0?

[xclutchxlife]

So I've just recently acquired my previously stolen/pawned laptop. Shortly after powering on I get a blue screen showing error sata 0 HDD lock st500lt012-1dg142. What are my options at approaching this if any? Thanks.

So, do you have a stolen device or one you purchased from a pawn shop (or you suspect was stolen and sold to you by a pawn shop)?

That device has a locked HDD, to prevent unauthorized access.

Contact Lenovo for assistance and be prepared to provide proof of ownership.
