WD Drive Utilities Installer has not been updated to a native Apple Silicon build as of the search information available. The latest known version (2.1.1.119) is X86 Intel-only and will continue to run under Rosetta 2 on M-series Macs today, but Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), at which point this installer will no longer launch. Check Western Digital's support site and driver downloads page regularly to see if a native build is released before the deadline. If you own WD storage devices, you may want to contact WD support directly to ask about their timeline for native Apple Silicon support — some users may find they can manage their drives through System Information or third-party utilities if WD does not ship a native version in time.
