    Yes, that's it. I had already reached that conclusion. Changing the USB port solved the problem.

    I, too, had success changing to a different cable on one drive.  Unfortunately, it did not work on another drive but it is the easiest, and cheapest thing to try.  Worth a shot.  Good luck.

    I had this problem with a 1TB SSD drive. Tried all the solutions suggested. Finally on a whim, changed from the USB-A to USB-C that came with the SSD to an el cheapo Android charging cable. It works now. Go figure.
