My internal 2 tb SSD has suddenly become "locked"; even though I myself didn't lock it. The good people at Mc$haft started nagging me about enabling UEFI partitioning, but I had managed to get round that by using grub instead. [...]
Just to clearify: is this a lenovo laptop? If yes, there are some models where the internal sata connector took a leave from his place on the mainboard, creating creative error messages on the way.

Hi Nik!
Yes, it is a Lenovo Ideapad 3-15, only a couple years old. The 2 tb SSD was bought specifically to replace the factory-installed 128 gb SSD, so that nothing Windoze would ever be permitted to run on this machine. Until now, of course, when Mc$haft reappears out ot nowhere.
