Have you installed "gnome-disk-utility"?
Why do you ask?
When working with external drives, I constantly use gnome-disk-utility to
mount and unmount, and generally to mount partitions of external drives
(including USB sticks) to see what I have stored there.

To me it is a basic tool.  But it was not installed by default in my
Debian Jessie installation; I had to install it.

Thanks for the pointer. I used to use "palimpsest" for this kind of thing when I wanted a GUI disk manager, but I went away in Jessie. This may be a suitable substitute.

Unfortunately, it doesn't see the disk either when plugged into the USB3 card.
