[QUOTE="massalt, post: 1905129, member: 410995"] I have this exact same problem. New M1 using 3 external drives that worked flawlessly with my 2015 iMac. 2 are Seagate's powered via the USB, one is seagate self powered. Ever since I got the M1, constantly getting the stupid error message. Was running through a hub, m1 stopped recognizing one of the 2TBs completely. Just got 3 separate cable adapters and plugged straight into the ports, same problem, one of the 2's keeps disconnecting, one not recognized at all, the self powered one works fine. The one that is not recognized at all is taking power from the usb. Tried plugging it into my M1 MacBook Air, not seen there either. I guess next I should start switching cables around? At this point, I would gladly buy the Apple-priced twenty dollar cables if I was sure it would solve the problem.... [/QUOTE]
