For the pen drive:

Some drives have a switch on them to lock it.

i'v ran into a problem like that, and could not fix it untill i formated it, with a USB pen drive tool.

The pen drive may be bad and need replacement.

For the external hard disk:

Try removing the drive from the external enclosure. Hook it up directly the computer.
The enclosure may be defective.
