I have had OSX El Capitan loaded for about 11/2 weeks.
I have my executable files on my internal hard drive and all other files are on 4 external hard drives.
After upgrading I noticed that my one drive, "Photo Edit" wasn't loading to my desktop on boot up. I assumed my external drive needed replacing and ordered one.
Then soon after I noticed that after loading another external drive. "iMac Main" wasn't loaded to the desktop but Photo Edit was loaded. Since then when I boot up one or the other isn't there, never both, but one or the other doesn't show on my desktop.
I have checked thoroughly my connections and all are sound. Also whatever drive loads works normally.
I now have to assume that there must be a problem with the OS and not the drives. My other 2 external drives always open and work fine.
I hope you can help.
