One last point, this is a USB 3 drive being plugged into a laptop (Dell Precision M90) which only has USB 2. None of the external USB hard drives I use on this laptop have this problem.
Just though that may help? Please let me know if you need any further information or would like me to perform any tests as I would be more than happy to do so as this problem is driving me nuts!
