Thank you.  It is an intermittent problem.  This morning the drive worked.
This evening, it didn't; I unplugged moved the drive and plugged into a
different USB port, it worked; tried the original port it didn't; tried the
second again, it did not work.  Tried another drive in the second port, it
worked.  The other drive has worked consistently, so I guess the drive is
dying.  I think it is still under warranty.
