Keeps going to sleeep
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought a 4tb version a year ago. My Net gear router wouldn't recognize it. Tried this 8tb version now and it works with the router; but then it goes to sleep. Once it goes to sleep I have to unplug it from the USB port in the router and plug it back in for it to read again. Shame on WD. Used to be top notch.
