Hello,

I have WB My Passport 2TB external hard drive and I had 500 GB data in it.

It was working fine the last time i had checked (2 days before). Today morning I connected it to my laptop and to my horror, its showing no data and showing as empty i.e. 1.81 TB of 1.81 TB

I am freaking out...please help

Regards

Vipul

"Is your data missing from the drive ?"
I think nathanwirth meant to post: After you have tried DIY partition recovery and/or file(s) data recovery programs -- is your data missing from this drive?

I recommend, if possible, cloning this hard-drive and working off of the clone drive, preserving the problem HD for later deeper analysis.
