This mybook drive is not able to be accessed from a PC. Have tried 3 Windows PC’s multiple USB 2 and 3 ports. In this Computer it shows as a CDROM sometimes and sometimes it doesn’t appear at all. When I view the drive in Disk Management it shows as an unknown partition and says not initialized. There is also a red ICON with a white down arrow to the left of the disk #. I tried to in initialize it as both MBR and GUID and it fails. I have also used “Diskpart” . It recognizes the drive # and allows me to select the disk # corresponding to the drive. I can “Clean” the drive successfully but it fails (times out) when I try to create a primary Partition. The drive in the enclosure is a WD Green 2.0 TB Drive. The external drive has never been used. I have removed the drive from the enclosure and when I connect it natively through a USB disk drive dock, I have the same issue. How can I fix this???
Thanks for any assistance
