If you don't have any relevant information on it, you may want to try to format it, plug it to your computer then go My Computer, right click the external drive you wish to repair and select format drive, don't move any of the options and click format. After format should work normally.

plugged in a 15volt power cord into a 250 GB Western Digital External HD - My book. Now, light lights, but disk does not spin. I figured the power supply board got smoked. I have another WD book that I want to swap the drive into. I can't figure out how to open the case.
