My almost brand new iMac will not recognize my brand new 3 TB My Book Essential after I reboot my machine. However, If I then unplug and re-plug the Essential into the back of the iMac the computer will recognize the drive.
I have reformatted the drive as per instructions, and once it is recognized by the computer, it works fine.
Can anybody shed any light on this? It’s an annoying problem and I fear that it may be a small symptom of a bigger problem.
Many thanks in advance for your help.
