Do you have, on your My Book, a software called SmartWare? If so, it controls the HDD power settings, internal backup etc. Its built into the firmware so... it can't be uninstalled.
I'll see what I can find out about this undocumented-crapware.My Book external drives are designed to save energy. WD GreenPower Technology™ lowers internal drive power consumption by up to 30%; a sleep mode reduces power during idle times, and a power-saving feature turns the drive on and off with your computer.
LE.
Read this because it contains info about removing smartware. At least it should.
You may need this GPARTED and the HP FORMAT TOOL.
Do it only if you do not need SmartWare!

I do have this SmartWare but it's not the same as in that first link. I do not have SmartWare Virtual CD Manager.
