On my Chromebox, I notice that it doesn't always keep an external drive connected. I had a 2TB that would disco then reconnect, and my 6 does now too. I've used 4 different cables and 3 of the 4 ports. All the same issue. Also, when it idles for long periods of time, upon turning the system back on, it's no longer accessible, though it is clearly on.
Any ideas? I read somewhere about the USB 3.0 having some sort of power save mode that may disconnect and not allow a reconnect. Whether it's a temp or total disconnect, a reboot always fixes it. It's pretty annoying.
