It actually sounds to me that the usb hub may be going bad. It's able to power everything else that requires lower power output from it but hangs on trying to run the hard drive itself. He said it works perfectly fine when connected directly to the usb port coming out of the computer which means that it has enough power when operated directly. Try a new powered hub and see if that fixes the problem. But from the sounds of it, that is what the problem is and not the drive itself. Alex Gomes Computer Solutions LLC
