However I might need help with mounting my harddrive with terminal.
Never got the error with the headers again - it's always completing and saying everything is OK. I did that a few times again and unplugged it in between. I also verified the HDD.Īlso with a success message. However the repair completed with a success message saying that everything is OK. At first try I got a red error line saying that something is wrong with the 'headers'. I ran Disk Utility and tried to repair the disk. The HDD is starting (clearly making a sound and the power-indicator is flashing) but it won't appear in Finder. When I shut down the computer and restarted it I received this message: Mac OS X can’t repair the disk “MyPassport.” You can still open or copy files on the disk, but you can’t save changes to files on the disk. However, there are times when it becomes unreadable on Mac. WD My Passport is a multifunctional portable external drive well-liked by its customers for its auto backup and passport protection. Today I connected the HDD to my MacBook Pro (via firewire) and NOTHING.
While underway I simply plug it in via Firewire - at home I connect it to my Airport Extreme to have it available as a network storage. I'm using it for almost a year now and it always worked fine. I have a WD My Passport 650GB (with Firewire and USB).
