(And the new cable has solved the problem! which was WD Elements SE 500GB portable HDD - code 1023 - not working on my media player. Thanks to feersuminjun for insisting it was a power problem. The drives - I have 2 of them - would not respond to attempts to access them but gave a click every 2 sec. But occasionally they did work. A powered hub removed the clicks but still didn't work.)
