Hello,

If possible test the drive on a different system. Also, try using the WD Dlg Tool to test the drive.

Thx for reply, my hard drive passed all WD DIg Tool test, even the extended one. And i’ve use another WD Red hard drive connected to my motherboard, which works perfectly on SATA III. so still no curl what is happening…
