I have this WD Passport, and all I want to do is get the information off of it onto my cloud storage. Unfortunately, I cannot seem to access the drive.

I have read the previous forums about device management, disk management... Attached are screenshots. When I right click the two nameless partitions, the 200MB is all greyed out except help and the 931GB partition only has the option of delete.

You have several choices:

- Try Testdisk, it can find, repair and rewrite partitions properly, this way you will be able to access your drive fully.
- Plug your drive in another computer, Mac OS or Linux would be ideal as they would probably mount and grant you access right away to you drive.
