Cannot initialize disk

[elk123]

Hi,

I have a 1TB hard drive and I can't get it to work. It doesn't show up in my computer, only in disk management. It says unknown. not initialized, and unallocated. When I try to initialize it, it says it can't because the disk is being cleaned.

Thank you!

Okay, downloaded the WD Universal Firmware Updater for Windows; http://www.wdc.com/wdproducts/wdsmartwareupdate/firmwar...
Follow their instructions.
