[QUOTE="briangw, post: 780130, member: 290989"] I find that this occasionally happens to me when I have used the front USB for another purpose - update etc - and then when you try to switch back to Rear USB it just seems to lose itself. Bear in mind that if you are switching between front and rear to allow 10seconds(ish) for the HDD to spin up to speed or that will generate a 'not ready' or 'Fat32 error. In any case, I usually find that (after making sure that the correct USB is selected) just doing a cold reboot using the front panel switch sorts itself out. I have never needed to reformat a drive because of a Fat32 error. The other thing I have noticed from other peoples posts, is that externally powered drives (yours is a 3.5, 2.5s are normally USB powered) seem to cause the most problems. I dont know the reason for this. But I would make sure that your HDD is powered on and spun up to speed before switching on the P+. [/QUOTE]
