How to use the Linux Reader to access My Book Live hardisk

Hi,

I have My Book Live 1TB and suddenly deleted some files on public folder, I read this forum and suggesting to install Linux Reader, then install DiskInternals Uneraser but the problem is I can’t find MBL to recover on the said software. Please help me how to connect MBL into desktop and recover my files.

Thanks.

You would actually need to remove the drive from the enclosure which will void you warranty. Then hook it up using a e-sata to sata cable/dock or a direct sata connection to your motherboard.

R-Linux may be a better option to recover a couple of files
