I don't know that if this is going to help you or not but the WD My Book Studio Edition II is the RAID unit and if any the drives be unsuccessful otherwise breakdown for a few cause then the complete unit will fail to mount. The breakdown was most likely accidental. You may need to contact Western Digital support through phone (they encompass toll free number) and make out if they be able to work by you to troubleshoot this. The unit may be within warranty period. They must also be capable to inform you how to obtain the data off the drive if probable. There is software accessible that be able to assist recuperate the data, if needed.

Have you tried with the repair permissions in Disk Utility? If that fails you might need to Disk Warrior. This happened to me once and only needs to be repaired by Disk Utility if you can or do not have got to rebuild through Disk Warrior in terms of how valuable files stored on it. I hope that this is going to help you. Please reply if this resolves the issue for you. Thank you!!!
