Have you tried fdisk -l after plugging in the drive?
The system may choose to put it as sdb instead of sda.
fdisk -l will tell you where the drive is if it can be seen at all.


Yep, tried that. When the drive is plugged in, nothing gets loaded. The USB Mass Storage guff in the logs mentioned earlier was from when I loaded the module manually. All that normally gets spewed out by dmesg is this...

[4296247.023000] usb 4-4: USB disconnect, address 3
[4296249.229000] usb 4-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4
[4296249.733000] usb 4-4: device not accepting address 4, error -71
[4296249.835000] usb 4-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5

So, usb-storage isn't loaded, and /dev/sda* isn't present. the drive also doesn't appear in disk manglement mmc in Windows apparently.

So I take it that when I plug the drive in usb-storage should turn on? Because, if it's not present then why would it recognise it? I'm not good with this sorta thing...
