Can we not just plug/un-plug USB 3.0 drives like we did with 2.0?
Hello all
I could really tell a long story here of all the issues I have been dealing with and could provide if requested, but to make this a bit shorter, can we now not just plug and unplug a USB 3.0 drive like we used to with 2.0?
All in all I seem to have really screwed up the USB 3.0 part of several machines with doing this and in thinking it was something else, but all seems to be related to the OS from just randomly unplugging the USB connection as when I do it a few times, and even had it happen once, and especially if its connected say as a network drive or something full time like that, the whole USB 3.0 system of the OS seems to get irreparably damaged. IE, redoing any outside drivers & software is not it as the only way I have been able to fix this is a drive zero out and OS rebuild.
All in all I know you are really supposed to eject the drives to do this safely, but I have plugged and unplugged 2.0 drives in every wrong way you can think of, and at least never ruined the OS's ability to use one again.
Thanks for any help
