External HDD disappears after a few minutes
Good afternoon all,
One of my external HDD's disappears after a few minutes; this only started happening since I upgraded to Windows 10.
It will show up again after unplugging and plugging it in again, but again only for a few minutes.
Here is what I have done so far:
- Tried both USB 2 and USP 3 ports.
- Disabled the automatic power off in power management.
- Tried running the HDD on my laptop (a Mac), where it just works fine.
- It will not show up in the disk management so I cannot reassign another drive number.
- I checked in the device manager if there were any issues but everything seems fine.
So briefly, I have run out of options and would be very thankful for any help.
Best regards,
Hanno
