Can someone please tell me more about this before I install it.
Had it also available. It failed to install. As everything is working like before and as expected, I don’t care. In general, for a NAS drive there is no need to install any specific driver, as it is a standalone device.
“It’s an update for the My Book Live drive and your Windows computer so that it can be compatible with other Windows Updates. As you may know, Drivers for our hard drives are written and provided by the Operating System manufacturer, which in this case would be Microsoft , no specific drivers are needed during installation of the hard drive.”
I did install the update and the only difference I have noted so far is that after booting up my laptop my mapped MBL
share often shows up as not mounted , but mounts immediately when I click on it !
