Or, if you don't have the stuff to do a flash, you could swap the boards of the drives (if they are identical drives).

The PCB on the drive has the key so you take the old one out of the non-working drive and just pop it into the new drive and you're good to go. Very easy, especially since samsungs dont require soldering (I think...)
