Hi Friends
I have this Western digital My passport 1tb black external hard disk.
I was very happy with it and it was running smooth as butter.
(Most of the times I safely removed)
suddenly 2 days ago when I connected it, entered WD security password I noticed that now in my computer it was showing as local drive and green progress bar in my computer's address bar was moving till "X" sign then hanged.
- white light blinked for initial 2-3 mins then become steady.
I tried almost all probable solutions I could find on various forums.
- I tried disabling driver then re-enabling (Didn't work)
- I tried chkdsk (Didn't work no response for almost 15 mins then I closed cmd)
- I check disk management it shows white space (I dont remember the tag unavailable or unallocated)
Data in that HD is very close to my heart, pics and video associated with my memories.
please help me how to get it work again or recover data.
NOTE:
when i installed WD smart it gets hanged and WD utilities says first connect a WD source or something like that
please save me guys
Thanks
Ankit
