Hi .... Bookworm my external drive gets recognises whenever I do a reboot or a boot up , Though I am not using a hub , just to the computer ports ...

Zznw4m I too have similar problems as you but , My problem is only in my front usb ports , The back ones work great , I was told it has something to do with the wiring on my pc case which is no big deal , All I do is go into the devise manager area and uninstall the drive , afterward scan for new hardware which it will find and load correctly , this way you don't need to restart your computer to have it shown
