So I recently took out my hard drive out of a early 2013 WD My Book Essential 4TB external enclosure because it failed and realized after I threw out the box and parts that WD has an encryption and voids your warranty. I officially hate this company after what I have gone threw and I can not get my precious data back and they just suggest data recovery which costs a lot of money.
But I recently opened up my friends my book that is the same version except 2TB (warranty has passed) to try the PCB board and only then did I realize that he has a WD Green Caviar drive and mine is a 4.0TB HGST hard drive? Now isn't the my book supposed to be a wd green drive? wtf is going on here? I opened up the hard drive a month ago and it's been sitting in my draw and I am the only one that has touched it and opened it up, so why is it a HGST drive?
