A Setback

Jump to Comments

I had a major setup recently when my Western Digital Mybook started freaking out.  The external hard drive would just disconnect and if I moved it around some I could find a possition that it would connect again.  After doing a bit of research I found a lot of posts that the power connector (inside the drive box) was probably bad.  This seemed to be a common issue.  I went to Western Digitals website and punched in my serial number.  The website said that I qualified for a replacement!  I wasn’t feeling to good abount WD until this moment.  I ordered my replacement and it came in the mail yesterday.  Now I have to try to get the old MyBook to work long enough to get all the images transfered.  Last night after 2 hours I was able to transfer about 100Gigs of picture files.  I have about 150Gigs more to go then I can get back to editing some pictures that I have been putting off for over a month while trying to deal with the hard drive.
