Hi,

After updating the firmware last night, I am not able to access any of the shares on the network drive. I can't map the shares because each time I try to remap the shares, I have to put in the password, which I never set. I basically cannot access the network drive using the Windows Explorer (get the 0x80070043 error => The network name cannot be found), I can still pretty much access the drive using dashboard

Here is what I have done before posting the question

  1. restarted the drive using dashboard
  2. shut down the drive and then restarted the drive using dashboard
  3. restarted the computer and then tried remapping
  4. changed the name of the network drive and did the three steps

BTW, I can still access the drive and pretty much do anything using the WD2GO app (stream music, open files etc.)

I am using Windows 8 x64 with media centre (was using the same OS before updating)

Before last night I was pretty much able to do evevrything I wanted with the drive

Help will be appreciated

    • Microsoft Opens Fairwater: Wisconsin AI Campus Runs as One Supercomputer via 800G Ethernet

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Closed-loop cooling and a custom 800G network protocol let the $7.3B campus run as one AI training machine. Microsoft confirmed June 23, 2026, that its Fairwater campus in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, is fully operational — and the engineering behind it makes the facility something fundamentally different from every data center that came before it. Where conventional cloud infrastructure racks up general-purpose servers and parcels out workloads to each one independently, Fairwater links hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 Blackwell GPUs into a single, coherent cluster using a two-story building design, 800-gigabit-per-second Ethernet fabric, and a proprietary networking protocol co-developed with OpenAI and NVIDIA. The result, according to Microsoft, is the closest thing to a purpose-built AI supercomputer that any company has ever placed in commercial operation. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319205/20260627/microsoft-opens-fairwater-wisconsin-ai-campus-runs-one-supercomputer-via-800g-ethernet.htm
