Dang. I swore that would work. As you suggested, I uninstalled the drive, rebooted with it unplugged, then plugged it back in, and it reinstalled without trouble. But still, when I unplug it and plug it back in, it won’t show up until I reboot. Is it possible that this has something to do with the SmartWare on the drive? I’ve never used it, don’t know what it does, either.
But kudos delivered for your persistence! Thanks for bearing with me. Any other ideas?
