I did experiences this stupid situation, but with WD Scorpio Blue External HD. It's not only works on my laptop but others as well.What i did was, i try to replace other usb cable, it works for a little while and the same problem repeated again. I ask many of my friends regarding this mess, and finally find someone who successfully resolve this. He suggest me to change the enclosure and my External HD works as usual. Tq
