[MacTUG] Western Digital SmartWare software update addresses data loss bug | TUAW

[Marlon A. Griffith]

"""
Western Digital updated its WD SmartWare Macintosh software on Monday to
version 1.3.6. This version is compatible with OS X 10.9, 10.8, 10.7,
10.6 and 10.5. When you download and install this new version, it
automatically uninstalls the old version.

The update addresses a nefarious rare issue in which WD Drive Manager,
WD Raid Manager and WD SmartWare software applications may cause data
loss or cause a "repartition and reformat of their Direct Attached
Storage (DAS) devices without customer acknowledgement."
