It does connect properly through USB 2.0 (and I get domething like “this device can perform faster by connecting to USB 3.0 port”) I come back to the laptop and the Red drive is not recognized by the USB 3.0 port - nothing shows in “My Computer” or in Disk Management. I then connected my Red drive to my desktop to transfer files - I only have USB 2.0 on the desktop. Obviously, I don’t want to do step 2 everytime, so I renamed my drives: My Passport Red and My Passport Blue. I solved this by going to Disk Management and right clicking “offline” to turn “online”ģ. ![]() Only one drive was recognized if both were connected to the laptop. Each drive worked fine on the USB 3.0 port when only one drive was installed (that is, the second was NOT connected via a USB 2.0 port).Ģ. My main laptop is a new Lenovo X220 with one USB 3.0 port.ġ. I have 2 of the WD My Passport SE 1tb drives. ![]() EDIT: Since I’m not getting feedback on my issue (I know it’s a pain to be greeted by a wall of text) - I’ll just ask a simple question:Īnybody out there using any of the WD USB 3.0 external drives? If so, any problems?
