Hello all, first time on this Forum.
My MyBook Essential is around 3 years old.
Model Number WD 2500JB External
Serial Number WD-WCANK8145909
There are some bad sectors and tried to fix them with WD Data LifeGuard Diagnostic.
I tried check disk and failed.
Report is:
Quick Test on drive 3 did not complete!
Status code= 07 (Failed read test element), Failure Checkpoint = 65 (Error log Test)
SMART self test did not complete on drive 3!
First I like to know what’s the meaning of that report.
Is this supposed to be a board or a disk failure?
If the disk is bad may I replace it with another WD drive? Which one?
Any help will be apprteciated.
Thanks
