I found a thread from a guy with a similar problem and the driver descriptor says the physical block size is 2048 bytes, but linux says it is 512 bytes. he was told to try 'lsusb' and 'dmesg'. I've done the same, and it appears that the computer is detecting the drive on some level. dmesg after attaching the device: [392420.983839] http://askubuntu.com/questions/274368/formatting-hard-drive-failed hub 8-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 2 [392421.192886] usb 9-2: new SuperSpeed USB device number 4 using xhci_hcd [392421.203808] usb 9-2: Parent hub missing LPM exit latency info.
