Its protected by bios usually after you format it. Shut your pc off boot into pmagic linux make sure you have the x86 64 iso and not the one that says "most people will need this"
Try again. If it says bios still protecting it, shut off and yank the sata cable from the drive. Reconnect it after you booted into the pmagic os
