[SOLVED] Problem with usb external hard drive

Hello, an external HD, witch was always connected in a PC(windows), suddenly stops mount.

I connect the drive in my arch and the activity light works. But i hear some beeping, only in the beginning.

So, i can only see the drive with lsusb

 
lsusb

nothing else (no lsblk, fdisk,chdisk,testdisk etc)

lsblk

└─mmcblk0p1 179:1    0  29.7G  0 part 

Also, i notice that there is a loop in kernel messages while the activity light keeps working

dmesg | tail

Re: [SOLVED] Problem with usb external hard drive

Yes my friend.. This was really helpful..!! Thank you very much!
So, the solution that worked for me is

- /etc/modprobe.d/blacklistUas.conf
options usb-storage quirks=Vendor_ID:Product_ID:u

- mkinitcpio -p linux

- reboot

Thanks again!
