My WD external hard drive is playing up on me and I need some quick advice. Basically there's no power getting to the hard drive.

It powers from the mains and goes through an AC adaptor. If I detach the cable (from the AC adapor to the hard drive) the light on the AC adaptor stays lit. As soon as I plug it into the hard drive the light goes out.

Whereabouts is the fault likely to be? Thanks
