Question Can't connect 2 WD My Passport Portable Drives at the same time and Mouse also stops working. Are docking stations more reliable than external USB hard drives? File Explorer shows the drive and enables previous files to be accessed. Having had to reload Backup the External Hard Drive does not show as Backup Target. Question My 4TB WD Passport won't connect and is making beeping noises, can anyone help me? Cheers Device Manager says drive is working properly and can be seen on Eject Media, visible to Data Recovery Tools but files are hard to recover for some reasons. Which hard drive docking station should I get to pull data off of a Western Digital Passport?

SSDs not showing up in disk management after clean install of win10 Let me know if you have more questions & keep me posted with the troubleshooting! Remember that moving data from your system drive to an external hard drive is not a backup, unless there is already a duplicate of the file on a different drive! In the future, always make sure you backup your files to at least one more locations. Have you also tried using a different USB cable with it?

If you manage to access your files, back them immediately elsewhere and then re-format the WD My Passport through the Disk Management. Another thing that could help is uninstalling & reinstalling the external as a device from Device Manager in Windows. However, I'd strongly recommend you try to access the contents on your WD My Passport from another computer as well and see how it will get recognized there. Formatting, on the other hand, does, so be careful! Those unallocated partitions do not contain anything. Assigning or changing the drive letter on an external drive shouldn't affect the data on it.
