My Book Dead No Power

My Book ■■■■■! It’s a fairly new drive and the power already went out on it.

I have a similar problem. My HD is on when my PC is on. The other day I unplugged it (without turning it off) and now it will not start again. It is as if there is no power to the unit. I swapped power cords to be sure getting power to it was not an issue. Still nothing. I, of course, pushed the power on button several times with no results. Any ideas?

Yes you can take the drive out of it’s enclosure and plug an adapter straight into the HD. I bought another HD (on sale, including a warranty) and I borrowed an adapter from a friend. Otherwise it would have been another $100+. So if you can, save your money coz it’s a common problem. Nothing is made to last anymore… it’s all :poop:
