I have recently bought WD MY BOOK LIVE 3TB personal storage.
Unfortunately, it is failed not working anymore.
Therefore, have removed 3TB HDD to recover my data.
This HDD was in My Book Live I tried to recover my data with one of of the non WD enclosure which did not work and below error comes up:
‘’ The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer.‘’
it is give me 3 option which is INITILAIZE - IGNORE - EJECT
When I click INITIALIZE below message appear :
‘’ This disk doesn’t contain an EFI system partition. If you want to start up your computer with this disk or include it in a RAID set, back up your data and partition this disk. ‘’
I have couple discussion from apple community that one of the member said WD put chip their enclosure so I have to get WD enclosure to be able to read data.
The other one suggested the enclosure might not support EXT 3 files.
So which issue is right?
Can I replace this HDD with Mac HDD to be able to read data?
Please help me as soon as possible I do not want to take my HDD to recover company Because they charging a lot.
I have tried almost everything there is last option left to try and I am going to do today.
I will take out my Mac HDD out and replace with My Book Live HDD. I hope I can recover this time.
Thank you
