This drive here... is the drive that never shows when I reboot or turn on pc.
If I unplug and plug back in after pc is on... its good to go...

Any ideas?
I had it on a usb3 usb card (where the other 2 drives are), and then swapped it, to the mobo usb3 port. But again, no difference.
I am at a loss, any help would be excellent, cheers.

Just a cheeky aside. 45 views... and not one bit of help? *cheeky grin*
Any ideas or thoughts, I will try :p

do external hard drives have drivers in device manager? Maybe they can be reinstalled?
And what happens if you remove one of the other drives and then insert the 1397 one?

The requested operation was unsuccessful.

In properties of the drive.

I unplug it, and plug back in, and it shows all fine
