So, my external HD that had every album cover i’d ever designed in my life on it and about 7 years worth of design work, died Summer Jam Sunday.
My heart pumps crude oil for Western Digital. I also lost about 38,000 mp3s.
Feel free to not talk to me for three weeks.

^^what eskay said
i’ll look into it this weekend! i’m holding up the damb Time:Line instrumentals!
open the External, and remove the Hard Drive, then plug Harddrive internally inside a desktop computer. Then if it still does not respond try running, “SpinRite.”

ah damn man. I just bought the exact same one from Best Buy! i’m about to start copying everything over to another drive right now lol
BTW, The skatedeck design is sick.
Maybe WD has some type of guarantee or offer a service to recover your data maybe?
I fcuks with internal drives and slap on an enclosure.
First of all, my condolences. I have the same exact WD external (purchased @ Best Buy during a great sale just like a couple other peeps in this post). The 320 GB joint. It’s been doin’ ok but this is scaring the shit out of me. Holla @ ur man Peter Rosenberg on what he did when his HD crashed. Talked about it on his show and everything.
i see rosenberg like once a month these days
You might wanna try Seagate. And folks, just take a day or 2 to stand down from all the rigarole so you can backup ya joints. We losin too much irreplaceable ish these days. Don’t make me take my belt off!
*reads this post*
*looks at western digital external*
*trembles with fear*
I’ve heard that you can get one last use out of a dusted external if you stick it in the freezer overnight. Haven’t had to try it on mine yet.
I got all my stuff, 80 gb of music and 100 of movies on the same one in the picture… shiiiiit i better get another lol.
Dayum that Sucks….Yeah data recovery is the way to go,it may be costly but worth it.
Man…it’s always sad when that shit happens. Hope you manage to recover it. Peace
