Important: As of 9/30/09, we no longer provide download support for Data LifeGuard Tools. We are now making Acronis WD Edition software available as the replacement for Data Lifeguard Tools. Download Acronis WD Edition here. IMPORTANT: If your system BIOS is 48-bit LBA compatible, or supports the capacity of your hard drive by itself, this software will not be needed. The only purpose of this software is to overcome a system BIOS limitation if your BIOS cannot recognize the full capacity of the hard drive(s) you wish to install. Western Digital recommends using the Dynamic Drive Overlay software only as a last resort. If possible, you should upgrade your system BIOS or purchase a controller card to obtain the BIOS support you need to support your new hard drive.To install the Dynamic Drive Overlay (DDO) software onto the master boot record of your hard drive you must setup your drive using Data Lifeguard Tools 11 for DOS (CD). Please follow the steps below to setup your drive and install Dynamic Drive Overlay.
