If you have a a second gen v2.x single bay My Cloud it appears quite a few others have found their device bricked with a flashing front blue LED.

One can “unbrick” their My Cloud drive so long as the hard drive isn’t damaged by using one of the various unbrick methods. Again, those past discussions can be found by searching the forum for “unbrick”.
