You need to look further into your /var/log/dmesg file to find all of the messages associated with your drive. If you don't see it there, perhaps you have a cabling issue? > I check in /dev and expected something like /dev/sdb but it doesn't exist. Stuff in /dev is created either during boot, or by hotplug events. If the system doesn't see the drive, there won't be a device node for it in /dev . -- Kevin J.
