I have two quite elderly (7 years old) WD drives, which still work perfectly I wanted something smaller so bought a new WD Passport for my MacBook Pro in January 2020. Compared to my old drives the new WD is flimsy but it worked the first time I used it. I successfully loaded it with photographs. I tried to used again and it clicked but then was okay. I did load some flies but although I have attempted to access the information it will not do anything. The light is on, I am using a cable I use for other portables, I have tried different USB cables and even bought a new one but its useless. It isn’t about replacing the drive, I wouldn’t have another WD after this, it’s about the loss of all my photographs.
Can anything be done with the drive or is it just more rubbish for the bin?
