MBL not recognized anymore

Hello all,

I bought a WD My Book Live 2 TB and it was working perfectly, till I decided to download the new firmware… During the updating process the electric power shut down… Now it seems the hard disk is ok, but  the case show a white fix led in the front; in the rear there is connection (lower green led) and activity (upper green intermittent led).

I tried everything (Ethernet cable, reset…) but nothing, the MBL is not recognized anymore.

It seems Linux environment has been corrupted, how could I restore it?

Thank you for every suggestion!

If you get a white light in front of the MBL, it’s stuck loading the OS. If a power cycle doesn’t fix it, replace it.

Thank you for the suggestion… However I have solved without sending back the HD, following the procedure  http://community.wdc.com/t5/My-Book-Live/GUIDE-How-to-unbrick-a-totally-dead-MBL/m-p/435724/highlight/true#M12669

now it’s running perfectly!

I’d just like to let you know that if you followed that guide without permission from Western Digital you voided your 3 year limited warrenty.
