People might suggest you remove the drive from the housing, but be careful doing this. In addition to the encryption you applied yourself, many WD external drives have always-on encryption in the SATA USB bridge. If you remove the drive from that bridge the encryption will prevent you from reading the data on the drive. There is some software to undo this encryption, here and here for example.
