cannot recover 2tb myBook after create bootable usb drive

#1 Post by remusjuncu »

Hello,

I wanted to create a bootable usb stick (using poweriso>tools>create bootable usb drive), but i forgot that i had my external hdd (myBook essential 2tb usb3) plugged in and did not checked the usb drive destination and i wrote the iso image on myBook. That made the hdd raw... if i try to access it, it asks me if i want to format it.
