Another USB Mount Thread

[maddbomber83]

Hello;

I'm attempting to mount an external USB 3 HD to the AC68 and am encountering the 'failed to mount at the first try!' message.

For troubleshooting so far, I have tried the USB 2.0 port and also connected the drive to my windows machine and verified Check Disk ran without issue.

I've also tested a USB 3 Flash Drive in both ports (this works fine).

Any idea for the next steps on troubleshooting? Thank you in advance!

Edit: I should also add that this drive has its own battery / power and in addition is plugged into a wall adapter.
