If your WD drive is running RAID, you could try disabling the RAID capability and see if that helps. If not, then it may be a policy setting that is being enforced by your IT department.

try other usb port, or other computer and see whether the hdd is detected. If still not, try to go to device manager ( http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000833.htm ), and then assign a drive letter to the hdd. After that, try to access it from Computer, if not able to access it, format it (use quick format) and then use this data recovery program to recover your files.
