I have an external USB HDD based on the SPIF225A controller which does not appear in the devices list unless I mount it manually with `sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdc1 /media/mike`.
`fdisk -l`:

I am running Loki with all packages up to date. I have tried a FAT32-formatted USB drive, which appears successfully. I have also tried multiple ports but with no luck.
