[Solved] western digital drive not recognised on fresh high sierra

[waipeinan]

stranger things...
on my lovely yet creaking x58, ive finally got high sierra ruining using latest 10.1.1 multi beats (ta very).
All of my drives mount fine and as expected, except my two 5tb WD drives are format not recognised and sometimes stalling boot....

if i flip back to previous sierra install all drives mount fine....
ive not yet tested it via usb but shall report once i find the power supply.... ha

Try Apple AHCIPort.kext v328 or Fix for ICH10.

Check [Solved] Drives not showing up in installer "Disk I/O error" and [Solved] ICH10R and High Sierra
