I recently purchased a Seagate Backup+ 1TB USB external hard drive. It works perfectly if I connect it after Linux is booted, but if it is plugged in when the computer first boots, it never gets recognized. Linux produces an error containing "device descriptor read/all, error -110." I've searched Google for this error, but haven't found anything about it. The drive also is not seen by Windows unless it is plugged in after the boot starts. Before I assume the drive is defective, I wanted to check if anybody else has ran into this.
