MyBook Live 2T dosn't respond for anything. White led, and I can't open the dashboard

Hi,

I buyed this product about 2 mouths ago, MyBook Live 2T for backup hard. I used for time machine with my MBP, but today i don’t know what’s happend but, the drive is dead. The Led is White, and the drive not responding for anything.

I tried to access from the dashboard, but I can’t open the dashboard.

Maybe I need to rewrite the firmware, but how ? Without the dashboard I can’t do manualy!

Please help me! The drive is full of important information :frowning:

I feel extremly disappointed… 

Regards,

I’m not sure, but I think the white LED means it’s stuck trying to do an update. Have you tried unplugging the network cable, turning on the NAS, waiting 5 minutes then plugging in the network cable?  Worth a try.

Yes, I tried, but no effect. I tried a reset too, and nothing :(  I can’t imagin whats happened…

If I push the reset button on the back, absolutely no effect. When I disconnect from 220V and plug again, then The led is Blue ( I hear the boot sounds from the hard ), and then change to white :(  And after that nothing. No sleep, No respond, no dashboard :frowning:

Has the drive suffered any power failures during it’s time alive?

I’m having the same problem. I see this post hasn’t been solved yet and its been a couple months. In response to the last question I’ve done everything the guy in this post did but nothing different. I had no power failure. The thing just quit working and stays white. I’ll never buy a WD again.
