How to reinstall software for my WD External HD (My passport Ultra)

[Chrissy123]

Hi there,

Can anyone tell me how to reinstall the software that was on my WD External HD (My passport Ultra). I stupidly formatted it in disk utility (on my Mac) and it wiped all the software?). I cant seem to locate where to find the software to reload it.

Thanks in advance for your help

You can get the drive utilities and security software from here for WD Backup, or here for WD Smartware.

Thanks Darren. I did this and then discovered the software was still in my applications on my HD… Durhhhhh!!!

Must we format it first before we can start using it?
