How do I mount a WD My Passport drive on macOS 14 using 1Password?

Mounting Mypassport drive on macOS 14 I am asked for password. I use 1password, but mac does not direct me to where the username and password/w apply.

What’s the history of this WD My Passport storage device? New to you, or a device that’s been in use for a while?

Did you possibly install the add-on WD apps and encrypt the drive using those tools, and it’s that software that’s asking for a password?

WD has encryption support with some devices:
