Hi,
I have my WD My Book now for 5 years and it worked fine (Wasn't much in use).
From yesterday to today suddenly it doesn't work anymore and I can't find a reasonable solution.
Anyone can help with a suggestion?
When plugging it in, the LED just flashed, and after a while an "empty" partition is shown in Windows. If you click on it you are prompted to format it.
I opened the external box and plugged it internally to SATA cable.
Basically the same thing. It is shown in the "Disk Management", but as "Not Initialized".
Soo, do I have to send it to some professional recovery company, or "initialize" it and try to recover the files with a tool like Recuva??
Thanks so much in advance.
