External Hard drives wiped: 'MyBook' and 'EFI'
I have a 2010 mac book 2,4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, OS X 10.9.5 and two exernal hard drives,
one 1TB Toshiba and a 500GB WD.
A couple of weeks ago, I connected the 500GB one and It was formated and renamed 'MyBook' and 'EFI'.
I panicked and I thought it was my fault as the disk got ejected twice while in use due to a bad cable.
Today, I connected my brand new 1TB on which I had recently stored important files.
This diskwas also mysteriously formated and renamed 'Mybook' with an 'EFI' partition, so I realised that something else
must be happening. I found a similar thread but as I understand it dealt with WD software that were wiping the external drives.
I have never used any WD software, I also checked in application support folders and there's nothing there.
The only thing I can think of is that some days ago I installed all the system updates.
Has anyone got any idea what might have caused it or what I can do to prevent this from happening again?
