Hey List,
I am using Debian Wheezy, & recently purchased a Western Digital "My Book Essential" external hard drive (2TB). It is powered by an external power adapter. When i initially plugged it in & attached it to my computer (while my computer was already booted to my desktop), Wheezy read it just fine. I opened Gnome's Disk Utility & checked to be sure it said 2TB & all seemed fine. I was then able to CUT about 100Gigs from an internal hard drive, & PASTE it onto the device. Then i CUT another 400Gigs & was able to PASTE only about 350Gigs when i encountered an I/O error. Unfortunately, I didn't take a screenshot of the error. I later discovered that all the data had made it safely to the External Drive, & the remaining 50Gigs was still on the internal disk (and was all able to be read just as it was). The next thing i did was go back into the External Hard Drive via Disk Utility, & unmounted it. Shut it completely off... and rebooted my computer. Now, when i plug the external Hard drive into my computer it doesn't mount or appear in Nautilus. Below I have posted log files from message, system, and daemon. Perhaps for a more readable format, i have also posted the same logs on pastebin here - http://pastebin.com/2LivNH6T I was wondering if anyone could help me with this problem? I tried Googling the log entries to no avail. I also don't have another computer in the house to see if the external drive is fine otherwise, because all i have is a netbook running debian, too. Any help would be greatly appreciated! If there is any other information i could post to maybe track down the issue, please let me know!
