WD My Password stuck in recovery process

[rekatha]

Hello everyone,

My WD My Password (1TB, hdd) error "You Need to Format the Disk before You Can Use It". I tried to recover it with EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard, but even after 3 hours it still 0%. When I look at task manager, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard doesn't consume any cpu and disk. Same thing (stuck at 0%) happen using Partitiond Find and Mount. I also tried using testdisk and it result with no file/folder detected. chkdsk is not an option because I my hd external becaome RAW.

Is there anything I can try ? any suggestion anyone ?

thank you.

The HDD is fully ID, with full capacity or not?
If yes, you should try to image it first and only after do a software scan on it.
Anything different, you should contact someone who can properly check what's wrong with the drive.
