[Bug 909806] Re: eSata HD not being auto-detected after recent upgrade

[Saša Teković]

I'm having the exact same problem (although on Ubuntu 11.10). When I
connect my HDD drive to eSATA port nothing happens. There are no
information in dmesg or fdisk. Interestingly, if I connect my HDD before
turning the computer on, the disk is recognized and mounted
automatically.

After executing 'sudo rescan-scsi-bus' the hard drive is recognized, but
I'd really like to see a better solution for this problem, especially
since everything worked correctly on Ubuntu 11.04.

Title:
  eSata HD not being auto-detected after recent upgrade

Status in “dbus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Basically I'm running Precise Pangolin 12.04 alpha and just today my
  eSata drive started not being detected by Nautilus or dmesg upon
  plugging it in or not. Previously it always showed up and when I
  connected to it via USB it appeared immediately. So something recent
  in terms of the dbus monitoring etc caused this. I then ran rescan-
  scsi-bus.sh and it was found and showed up in Nautilus. The hardware
  is a HP Laptop with a eSata/USB port. I could get more specific but I
  just wanted to note this bug in case it can be identified.
