Thankfully I’ve kept a backup of my files as I think this thing is done for, but maybe you can help.
After updating my MyBookLive Duo 4TB, it seems to be stuck on initializing… and has been for 4 hours.
But whats scary is the bottom right shows 0 MB / 0 MB even though its a 4 TB system (although set up in RAID 2TB / 2TB.
I don’t know whats wrong…
I even went as far as trying to do a firmware update via SSH (updateFirmwareFromFile.sh or something like that), but it says there is not enough space to do so.
Well, turns out I didn’t have all my pictures saved… only half of them… and recovery is not working.
Spoke to WD this morning and they are RMA’g this unit.
Can’t believe a firmware update destroyed this device. The firmware update even said successful. UNBELIEVABLE.
After the initializing saga, the device just wouldn’t respond… No Dashboard, no SSH, no anything.
Time to look elsewhere for my needs… Even though they are RMA’g this unit, it simply can’t be trusted… Not even in the RAID 1 configuration that I had it in.
If your in the US and willing to sell the enclosure for a reasonable price, I would be interested.
You can keep the drives and repurpose them someplace else.
I’m looking for a unit I can do some testing on with a debricking script.
I already have a couple of greens I can drop in there.
