If you post that here, hopefully somebody can help you reconstruct
whatever was there.

here is the output of lsdrv for the drive.

USB [usb-storage] Bus 001 Device 002: ID 152d:2338 JMicron Technology Corp. / JMicron USA Technology Corp. JM20337 Hi-Speed USB to SATA & PATA Combo Bridge {000000000005}
└scsi 4:0:0:0 TOSHIBA  HDWD110          {585T7P6NS}
  └sdb 931.51g [8:16] Partitioned (dos)
                                    ^^^^^
There's your answer. This drive is using a dos partition table, not GPT. But there's some info where the GPT would be that is confusing parted.

   └sdb1 931.51g [8:17] Empty/Unknown

As you can see, this partition entry is rational.

Try displaying the partition table with fdisk instead of parted.
