Hi Guys,
Probably nothing to do with this problem, but anyway:
If I have a HDD connected via a USB adaptor, I've found that after an initial plugging and use, then safely removing it, going back to it, in the same session, it may or may not be recognised. Doing a hard reboot seems to clear what ever causes this. Simply logging out and logging back in doesn't seem to work.

I've seen this before. Sometimes it just helps to plug out the unit out and do the following.
If you can, power it down, then connect it, power it back up. If it works, it's like the unit. If it doesn't, then it's software.
Another thing you can try is to wait for a few mins, until the drive spins up, plug it out, wait 10s plug in again.
It could be the drive is really slow to spin up.
Good luck, let us know what happens.
Kate
Thank you for your reply. I must admit I didn't wait and logging out and re booting takes several seconds.
