Basically I bought an Asus PA248Q for my laptop and it has a USB 3.0 hub built in. The laptop I am using is an Asus G53SX.
Having two external USB 3.0 hard drives I naturally wanted to connect them both via the USB hub in my new monitor. Since the laptop only has one USB 3.0 port this set up worked out nicely for me.
My issue is that while using one or the other hard drive my computer will give me a message saying that the files I am working with are no longer present on the disk. Then whenever I try to open a file on that drive I get this issue. After checking the disk Windows says the file system is RAW and can't be read. This freaked me out but when I reboot the computer the hard drives both work fine. The problem will return at random times, usually when transferring files in large amounts between my computer and the drive.
The problem isn't permanent but I am worried it suggestive of a greater problem with the USB HUB or the way that I am using it.
