Old MyBook

I have an old MyBook WD6400 that was not installed properly. It was set up with a 30 day Memeo trial subscription and sat there useless for many years. Is there any way that I can use this drive without buying software? It seems unethical to me that they would sell this product without telling people they needed to buy software to make it work.

Welcome to the Community.

WD USB drives do not need a particular software for file management operations, only for additional (Secondary) automatic backup operations. Please visit the following link for a step-by-step guide related to direct hard drive use:

Thank you.  Sometimes the answer is so simple you can’t see it.

My pleasure.
