Currently I have ML Great news except…now my other WD drive is gone from the finder! You guys must practice this too much! First the software updates, then when updating the firmware - which it says to do…it says half way through the drive is locked! Thanks for wasting another day, crashing another drive. Makes me wonder why i bought WD drives in the first place.

Each drive contains a full years archive or less of photography works. There are thousands we are talking about k range of photos, raw files, edits and comments on those drives sorted in multiple folders and everything.

The recovery of my crashed drive using Kroll has so far recovered raw files, but there is no folder structure and all files have lost their file names and been given random names. Kroll Recovery also recovered the folder structure seperatly, but the files in those folders are corrupt.

Right now, the recovery leaves me with numerous unsorted, unnnamed, unsearchable files and in legal risk to many of my clients. Another problem is that a recovery of RAID 1 3TB Drives still produces a recovery output of 5TB and counting - i actually had to go out and buy new drives to handle the raw recovery output. This is a PAIN! I do not see any reassurance of WD so far whatsoever that the intitial problem that caused the drives to be reformatted has really been taken care of.

    Professional data recovery is likely the only solution. Joe Read more. WD Community Well, yeah. Dropping the drive on the floor even from inches will break it. Sorry, but if you need the data, you're looking at data recovery, and that's if they can help you. Does it say anything in Disk Management down where the bars are shown like Raw?
