Kidneys and lungs built to order in the lab. Two disks show the Free space indicator and the third does not. Brain chips that enable us to control machines with our thoughts. Ĭurrently all 3 of my disks are mounting with a Firewire connection but WD Smartware is only recognizing one and not letting me change the settings on any of them.

The recent smartware update () suggests others may also be having problems but the firmware hasn’t been updated since. Or it recognizes the disk but won’t let me change the settings on the disk.
(Backed up fortunately.)Ī symptom that I’m going to start having problems is that the WD smartware doesn’t recognize the disks. If you can see the drive there Right click on it. One disk has stopped connecting even with the USB connection and the firmware updater doesn’t recognize that there is a connected disk at all. Try this: right click on Computer from the start menu and click manage.
I’ve tried switching cables, switching power cords, connecting to different computers (Macbook Pro, Mac Pro) and I keep having problems. I followed the instructions on updating the firmware and software for the drives but I still have intermittent problems. First the free space indicators went blank and then the disks would not mount on the desktop (Mac Mini OS 10.6.5). I started having problems with my 3 Studio LX drives a few weeks ago. I was wondering if anyone might know a way to solve this issue, or if my information is at the very least recoverable - all of my documents, music and video were on it for the duration of my editing process, and I would really like to get that back. I tried using the DIsk Utility on my Mac to diagnose and solve the problem, but nothing ever happened, and it couldn’t discover an issue. After that, my hard drive stopped showing up on my computer - the WD smartware shows up, and I can unlock my hardrive, but after that, the smartware doesn’t show an external device, and neither does my computer. Recently, I ejected the hard drive from my computer, but accidently unplugged it before it was completely finished ejecting from the computer properly (my computer was running slower than usual with Final Cut).

Recently I’ve been working on a movie in Final Cut, using my external hardrive to house all of my data and pretty much everything from my computer so I have enough space to run Final Cut.
