How to UN-write protectWD My Passport 070A so I can initialize my WD?

My WD SmartDrive (disk 1) is not showing anymore on MyComputer. In computer management, its shows its unallocated and not initialized. Every time i try to initialize it, its says " media write protected." I can’t open it because I can’t initialize it. Please would you teach me how to un-writeprotect my wd because i can’t initialize it in computer management. Please find attached the print-screens i made while trying to initialize my WD.

P.S. I am not going to reformat my WD coz i still need the files…

I don’t see any screen shots. It sounds like something got corrupted. Maybe one of these will help http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk or  http://findandmount.com/ .
