It used to shift live.

I haven't tried smarctl maybe that's the next thing.

It's working all right on every plugin and mount at the moment. Now
that it's working have tried a new USB cable as suggested by Keith.
Because with the other cable the light on the drive went on, but it
wasn't detected by blkid. But that was also the case with the new cable.
Several tries and it would be recognised. So far with the new
cable it's recognised each time and I don't get the message that the
device doesn't exist.
I'm about to change it back to the UUID from the device name /dev/sdb1
in /etc/fstab as Camaleón suggests and see what happens.
It still mounts and still recognised immediately, so don't know.
Maybe with raid the problem is different?
