Lacie is the hD, but it is not mounted!!!

OK - that is not a hub problem. The hub is working. If it wasn't,
you would not see the hard drive.

Now we need to find out way the drive is not getting mounted. The
first thing I would do is run "fdisk -l" and see if the partitions
on the drive are detected properly. You can also look in
/var/log/messages to see what the system is doing when you plug in
the drive.

If the drive is detected properly, then we move to why it is not
being mounted. For that, the first thing we need to know is the
desktop you are running. (Gnome, KDE, Fluxbox, etc.) From there, we
can tell you what settings to check. It is possible to turn off
auto-mounting.

forgot to say that I am running Gnome3

OK, its seen, but not mounted.

I had a problem where a usb device wasnt mounting as it had no label.
i used cli to label the volume and voila.
