I’ve a 13-inch, M1, 2020 MacBook Professional that’s ignoring a particular Lacie USB-C SSD drive. It would not matter which USB-C port I plug it into.
It isn’t the M1’s USB ports. I can plug different gadgets (together with one other Lacie SSD) in they usually work simply positive.
It isn’t the Lacie drive. It really works after I plug it into two completely different MacBook Execs and an iMac Professional.
All Macs are operating macOS 13.5.
Overview
I’ve used this drive with my M1 every day for over a yr. Yesterday, I reimaged my M1 and reinstalled macOS. At this time I plugged within the drive and it carried out this loop:
- Present display asking if I wish to enable the accent to attach
- Earlier than I can click on Enable, the dialog disappears
- After a few second, return to step #1.
I put my mouse the place the “Enable” button was and stored clicking till lastly I managed to click on it earlier than it disappeared.
Now my M1 would not acknowledge the drive in any respect. No immediate to permit it. The drive does gentle up however by no means reveals up in Disk Utility or System Info.
What I’ve tried
- Rebooting the machine
- A distinct USB-C cable
- Placing a USB-C hub between the drive and the M1. This really labored for a few second earlier than the drive disappeared once more and I bought a “Disk Not Ejected Correctly” notification.
