It’s the fourth time that I have to change my drive. It’s a 3 tb my book essential. It is connected at my Mac mini 2009 with an USB 2.0 ports. It unmount itself by its own and after a warning message of the system ( mountain lion, but also lion before ) to advice to unmount a device in a different way, I need to shutdown my Mac because it doesn’t respond.
There is an incompatibility with Mac?
No way to repair o reformat, and also after some tricks to restore the volume in Linux , the drive do the same think
