[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1155505, member: 141969"] I had a Belkin external USB hub that developed a problem like this after several years use. :( I guess that the electronics developed a fault. But since your USB socket works OK with other devices, and your caddy works OK on other PCs, the electronics are probably still OK. :) From random reading on tinternet, I have got the impression that certain makes of USB3 chip are more troublesome than others, so this might be the source of your problem. If so, there is nothing that you can do about it, other than not using the incompatible devices together. :( -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
