Fried wd my book

Hi. So i have a WD My book Mirror edition and i accidently plugged a laptop charger in. The light started flashing crazily and a few seconds later it was smoking. Then I looked for any scorch marks but there were none. Please Help me.

Hello, Naveed1

Well, the drive is gone bad and if you wish to recover the data from the drive then get in touch with data recovery partner.

Try searching posts by fzabkar. He explained about fixing this on My Books. There was something like a diode burnt out that could be bypassed. Try this for starters Bridge Boards

Hello, Joe_S

I understand, well the internal circuit of the My book has several components like the diode, transistor, Integrated circuit. Well, in this case, the primary circuit i.e bridge board consists of the diode may get burned because of the high flow of current in it.
As the circuit is burned and the device is said to be bad, WD® cannot process the replacement for that all you can contact the data recovery so they can recover the data from the drive for you.
