Title: Messed up external HDD
Post by: jdogzilla on December 17, 2009, 06:02:24 AM

Hello, I just bought a Linkstation Pro 1TB box. I wanted to transfer all the data from my Western Digital 500GB HDD to this box. I connected the WD drive with USB cable directly to the box, but then after some time, due to some reason, pulled the WD USB cable out. From that time, I can no longer detect my WD Ext HDD on any machine, let it be the Linkstation, my PC, or Mac. I did not press the small button on the bottom before releasing the WD Ext HDD. Any suggestions on what I can do to recover my WD Ext HDD?

You might want to contatc WD support as it was removed without unmounting it. Formatting may be the only option.
