Mac Hard Drive from Disk Utility Mac OS Sierra 2017. Since I’m ditching the old Mac and don’t see why I should still be using El Capitan, the drive has been rendered a useless waste of money.

I have loads of precious info on my drive, which have not been in use for a week or so. Then I updates me passport for mac with new drivers because it was extremely slow. And now it’s now shown in my finder showing just WD unlocker. I didn’t create a password to the disk but still try to unlock it. When I unlock it nothing changes and I can’t extract info from my drive. That really drives me crazy as I have work to be done using these files. Did WD officially explain what happen and what we should do? I’m afraid to loose my info so much.
