Hey everyone
I have a WD 1TB internal HDD bought in sept'13. I was using it as an external drive with a transcend casing. Last night it suddenly stopped working and now does not get detected on any computer that I plug it to. It hangs the computer while it tries to read the drive and eventually you have to disconnect it to get the computer to work.
Is there anyway to troubleshoot this. I'd format it but then it does not even read the drive so not sure how to proceed
Also how does the replacement for WD work? I've heard that you have to courier the drive to Bangalore to get a change. Isn't that expensive and risky?
Please help .... and please hold a minute's silence for all the data that went down with the drive
