USER MANUAL

Replacing a Drive (My Book World Edition II)

My Book World Edition II is a limited user-serviceable product which allows for
servicing one or both internal hard drives in the enclosure.

Important: Only WD Caviar

®

Green™ hard drive assemblies can be

inserted into the My Book World Edition enclosure. Visit support.wdc.com
and search the knowledge base article 2569 for detailed instructions on
obtaining a replacement drive for this product. Use only WD hard drive
assemblies or your warranty will be voided.

If the LEDs on the unit are flashing, a network drive may be faulty. To determine which
drive is faulty, do the following:

1. Open WD Discovery and select the unit.

2. Click Configure and log in.

3. Click the Advanced view and then click the Storage tab.

4. Click the Disk Manager icon.

The “Unassigned” drive is the defective one. The number corresponds to the A or
B color coded decal on the drive, as shown on the next page.

In the event a fault occurs and you would like to service the device yourself, visit WD
Technical Support at

support.wdc.com

and search the knowledge base article 1709

for detailed instructions on obtaining a replacement drive. When contacting
Technical Support, have the following items ready: My Book serial number, date of
purchase, and the serial number of the internal hard drive(s) which require
replacement. Once you have received the replacement drive(s), follow the steps
below to service the dual-drive storage system.

Important: To avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) problems, ground
yourself by touching the metal chassis of the computer before handling the
device.
