No! This problem did not start until after I had purchased the drive so any questions about behavior before I mounted the drive are not applicable.
You ask me to "test the latest upstream kernel". I am a Linux newbie and do not know how to do this. I will follow your link to see how. If it trashes my system I am about to give up on 18.04 anyway. I did try the latest LTS Cosmic, but after two days got rid of it. If the "upstream kernel" has the same bug, I need to return the drive within the 30-day period for a refund. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1802821 Title: Serious design flaw using large external drives.
