Pre-release 1.03.22 and WDElements 1.5TB

No biggie answering for me, bill_s.  I’m always up to getting things done, even when I’m not around!

Yes, if you reformat your drive, you will lose everything on it.  I was rather lucky because I had an empty drive that I tested with the WD TV Live.  However, if you do use the utility I mentioned, of which I only used once, it should be able to repartition your drive without losing your data.  But, the caveat being, you should have a backup of all your data to begin with, just in case if the drive does go squirrelly on you.

Hello friends:

My WD Elements 2 Tb drive is running on WD TV HLive with 1_02_21 firmware.

I reformatted the drive using WD guide ref. 3865 , it was very easy , after  backup of all data.

Thanks for your suggestions.

See you
