In almost every case that isn't that high a barrier security wise. It's
just a drive electronics lock. The data is still on the platters if
sent to a facility, and you can buy drive unlockers - not cheap, but not
out of reach if someone wants that data.
There are true hard disk full disc encryption drives available now, but
I don't think that's what you post refers to as they are still rare and
poorly supported.
