Wiping my My Cloud without an ethernet connection

My old My Cloud seems to have given up the ghost. All I get is a yellow light, sometimes solid, sometimes flashing. Assuming there is no way to fix it (and I did not see one in my searching) is there any way I can wipe the drive clean before disposing of it?

You nailed it (and I didn’t have to hammer it)!

I had unplugged before I left on vacation. This time, I let it do it’s own thing until suddenly the yellow light went off, and all is well.

Are you sure you have a My Cloud Home???

I have an old style My Cloud. I looked for a model number on the product before I posted, but I couldn’t find one.
