One of my external HDDs will hang every 2-3 days. I can drill down to the top level directories and see them on the external HDD ,but can drill down no further.
It’s one of these external drive readers:
It is a dual 2.5 HDD reader with one 2Tb disk and one 400Mb disk inserted.
Here is what I have done:
- power on/off HDD reader
- unplug HDD reader
- turn off express VPN (which sometimes gives me trouble)
- scan for viruses
- only thing left to is restart
After this occurs and I restart it hangs. When I restart I get this screen:
It will never restart so I must power off by hand.
What else can I troubleshoot?
