First off, i only use this unit for monthly backups (so my guess is it’s been running for a total of 20 hours in 10 months of use) The other day I tried to connect it, and it was absolutely dead. no blue light, no whirr, nothing.
I e-malied WD support 4 days ago about this to no avail, and the only advice I found on their site is to try with another power adapter, which I’ve done, but still no joy. Any ideas on what I can do? I really don’t mind losing the data (happily, none of my other HD’s have failed in the meantime), but would like to have this little guy working again…
Thanks for your attention!
