Trying To Format Wd My Passport For Both Mac And Pc And It Keeps Saying It Cannot Unmount
Hey there Sushil Kulkarni, What's the exact model of the WD External drive? I would check if the drive is visible in BIOS, Device Manager or Disk Management. I'd also check for any new updated regarding the OS, storage controller, BIOS or the drivers themselves. You could also check the drive on another computer with the same or different OS to see if the problem comes from the drive or from the OS. If you get the drive to be recognized anywhere I would run WD Data Lifeguard Diagnostic tool in order to see if the drive is functioning properly or not. Check if the drive passes both the quick and the extended tests. Here's a link: Post back with results from the tests:) Captain_WD.
I hope, you have got your WD becasue I found the true solution!! Please try it! • Find another computer, that’s not a MACBOOK or Imac or anything what works with OSX system. • DO NOT USE an OSX SYSTEM! Try to find a WINDOWS system • plug in the WD to the Computer (that has the Windows system). Format your WD and on the normal PC. Plug out safely when it’s done.
Mar 27, 2017 - If it doesn't work on different computers you have narrowed it down the the WD unit itself. If the problem was with your Mac, it wouldn't be present on a different. The WD enclosure is reporting back that there is a drive but it has no. If it is your drive, the USB to SATA adapter will allow you to attempt to.
• Plug in the WD to Mac, and try to format Sometimes it wil give you the same result, somehow it does something (I don’t know what) and there will be the Official name of the HDD and after that erase it, and it will work!! • Believe me, I tried. And now it works. I was arguing and I was upset, because it didn’t work, but when I found this amazing solution I was happy.
It's okay to link to other resources for more details, but avoid giving answers that contain little more than a link. • Be a good listener. A wall of text can look intimidating and many won't read it, so break it up.
