HDD only recognized after reset

You say its not recognised until you do a rest to factory defaults. What do you do then to make the WDTV not recognise it. (for example - go to standby or unplug the WDTV from the power socket)

When I do a factory reset the drive is recognized. When I put the unit on standby and back on it is no longer recognized. If I unplug the unit it acts the same as if doing the reset thing - the drive is recognized.
