Hi, and welcome to the forums.
You need to get rid of that awful WD software. At the least, unlock it or remove the password.
I hate to tell you this, but apparently it's quite involved. And you have to download both a firmware update and another piece of software (a VCD manager).
Here's the elaborate instructions: http://www.marccizravi.com/2010/remove-wd-smartware/
You may have a workaround, though. Erase your Mac's internal HD with Disk Utility (in your Applications/Utilities folder), and install OSX.
When it starts up, +Setup Assistant+ will ask if you want to transfer your information, but you can't do that, either. Set up a temporary user account (don't use the same user name as before).
When your Mac starts again, connect to the drive and enter the password. Then start +Migration Assistant+ in Applications/Utilities, and transfer everything from your backups.
Good luck!
