so i’ve tried to open the wdmc (according to wd support i can open it to recover data) but when i connect the disk is not recognized
diskutil info /dev/disk1

i’ve tried also to use diskutil diskRepair but i’ve got this
rror repairing map: POSIX reports: Invalid argument (22)
or
gpt recover /dev/disk1
gpt recover: unable to open device ‘/dev/disk1’: Operation not supported by device
do you know if i can:
-
access to my data and recover data
-
alternatively initialize disk from scratch
?
any support is appreciated
thank you!!
