Hello,

After plugging the device disk, go to device manager (In run type "devmgmt.msc") In Device manager go to "Universal serial bus controllers" It should list the storage devices that you have connected to your PC. Right click on the drive controller and then click "Uninstall". Remove the USB drive and restart your system.
Try connecting the device again, i think this should solve the problem.

Good Luck!
