My WD MyBook Stopped Working

[Fazzl]

So I tried backing up my MBP using Time Machine but my MyBook 500GB doesnt want to work. The light on the front works but when i connect it nothing happens. Nothing shows up on my MBP anymore. It used to work fine. Any ideas?

This is strange cos I've got a WD MyBook and it stopped working a couple of nights ago. I plug it in and as soon as soon as the blue light comes on it goes off. It's so annoying. I hate sending stuff back! Why is hardware so unreliable these days?

Mine went South last week as well and Disk Warrior couldn't resuscitate it either.

Sent it back and UPS is delivering the return unit today.

Hopefully it is the same unit with data intact.
