Hi @doggycoder

It only occurs after your firmware has been updated?
It was detected fine before you've upgraded it?

Strange enough.

Have you tried re-wire the HDD? See if it can be detected again?

Could also be a problem with the HDD. Is this a new HDD? Or used one? What about the health check of this HDD? Working fine on a computer?
