    There are two programs listed on site that relate to Western Digital Disks.

    I have a SATA disk and have decided to download the diagnostics programme (listed below).

    When I tried to download this programme I found that I had downloaded the lifeguard.

    Can someone tell me how to download the diagnostics programme?

    Thanks

    DLG stands for Data Lifeguard, so the download linked to is the DLG Diagnostics.

    Ok, but why are there two references on the downloads site?

    In addition, I have a SATA disk

    ie.
