[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1629977, member: 46727"] You're going to get that error from some external hard drives when left attached and your Mac goes in and out of sleep mode. The problem occurs because the external stays awake when your Mac goes to sleep. Your Mac can put the internal drive to sleep when it sleeps but not all external drives will respond. The solution is to eject the drive before putting your Mac into sleep mode. That can be caused by a defective USB bus. Do the drives show up if you reboot? Also, try resetting the SMC. [/QUOTE]
