No hot swap WD
I have a WD2001AWSS, firmware 01.00101, that I was able to hot swap a few times and now it will not hot swap. Two other drives will hot swap on the same equipment.
(esata attached Antec Varis external enclosure and Cable Unlimited docking station)
To mount this drive I must reboot with the drive attached and powered on. Then all is OK.
Tested with WD's wingding app and this 2TB drive passed.
Should I try a firmware update if I can find one?
Does anyone have experience with firmware updates on hard drives.?
