Hi!

I found a way to unbrick my book but now partition is lost…

And I cannot format the disk. It seems that disk is on read only. I tried WD_Quick_Formatter_Win_1_2_0_10 tool but without succes. Is anyone know this issue? If I can get back write acces on disk I should be able to rebuild MBR table.

Please help :frowning:

I also tried DISKPART command line: failled too
