I’ve found posts here and elsewhere with instructions that say they are for unbrinking a Single Drive My Cloud, which I need to do. However, all of these directions seem to have you set up a raid. I have a My Cloud “WDBCTL0040HWT-00” with a single hard drive. Is my interpretation correct? If so, are these instructions correct for a My Cloud with a single hard drive? They have steps that include “set 1 raid on, set 2 raid on, sudo apt-get install mdadm parted, sudo mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=1 --metadata=0.9 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb2, sudo mdadm --stop /dev/md0, sudo mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb2”. Should I actually do such steps on a single drive my cloud? If not, should I simply skip these step? If I should skip them, are there different commands regarding the hard drive other than uploading backup images to it?
The hard drive is dead.
