I donРІР‚в„ўt know, he fix computers as his work, so he know what to do. Again I donРІР‚в„ўt know why my HD have lost it original firmware, maybe that part become corrupt, I donРІР‚в„ўt know, but my friend tell me that he can fix it if I bring him the original firmware. Connected via USB in the My Book enclosure will happen to not РІР‚СљseeРІР‚Сњ the disk neither in the Disk Management window, but the enclosure works perfect with another HD, so its not an enclosure problem. Due to some problem the disk crashes the PC when is connected directly and of course it down show up in the Disk Management window.

Im not professional in the subject, but a friend of mine it is, he says that he needs the ORIGINAL Firmware of my HD in order to fix it. But if the controller is somehow damaged and non-responsive, the drive just seems to be toast. If it had still been working via SATA you could at least have continued to use the drive as an internal drive. If the drive wonРІР‚в„ўt work in the enclosure and wonРІР‚в„ўt work via SATA, then it looks like youРІР‚в„ўre down to buying a whole new external drive. Now that the warranty has been voided, and thereРІР‚в„ўs no firmware available to flash the drive with (not that IРІР‚в„ўm seeing what that would necessarily accomplish in the first place) you would appear to be stuck. It seems as if it would have been easier to have WD replace the drive under warranty, if something had failed. Which makes me even more curious why the technician wants to flash it with the РІР‚Сљoriginal firmwareРІР‚Сњ, when thatРІР‚в„ўs what it has already.

YouРІР‚в„ўre rightРІР‚В¦ I find no results anywhere on the WD website to indicate there ever was such a model as WD10EAVS.Р”В«ut I still donРІР‚в„ўt get how you need the driveРІР‚в„ўs original firmwareРІР‚В¦ since there never was any updates to that family of SATA drive (either before or after the EAVS was discontinued), any firmware flashed into the controller on the EAVS is the only firmware thatРІР‚в„ўs ever been on that controllerРІР‚В¦ in other words, it already has the original firmware on it.Р”Р„s far as I can tell, from searches at WD and internet-wide, thereРІР‚в„ўs never been a firmware available for download for that family of drives from anywhereРІР‚В¦ what it has is what itРІР‚в„ўs always had. If youРІР‚в„ўve removed the VCD from the EAVS, then you can now only hook it up to a SATA port on the motherboard and use it as an internal РІР‚вЂњ the enclosure is no longer any good to you.Р”Р„nd I donРІР‚в„ўt get why the firmware for a Caviar would have been in the MyBook section in the first place РІР‚вЂњ IРІР‚в„ўm not surprised that itРІР‚в„ўs not. The VCD is needed for the drive locking functions of the MyBook. ItРІР‚в„ўs interesting that you say the drive was 9 months old, and yet the HD inside it is only 4 months oldРІР‚В¦ was the 9 a typo, or are you trying to change the drive inside the enclosure?Р”В«ecause, if youРІР‚в„ўre trying to either switch the drive or to remove the VCD partition from it, then it wonРІР‚в„ўt work when you put it back in the enclosure.

Of course, opening the case and connecting the drive directly to your motherboard through SATA has voided your warranty, so whatever the problem was that was causing your computer to suddenly crash after 4 months, I think youРІР‚в„ўre on your own here now. The firmware updates available from WD only apply to the previous generations of My Book Essential. What your drive shipped with is the current version of the firmware.

As far as I can tell, the firmware for the 2.0РІР‚в„ўs hasnРІР‚в„ўt been updatedРІР‚В¦ there is no firmware update to download.
