Windows 7? I've heard a lot of people are having this problem. Possible solution is to go to your device manager and uninstall the external hard drive. Plug the drive's USB cable back in and see if it recognizes it. Another possibility is assigning a drive letter.
It seems to be a problem with the WIN7 plug&play. You could also try turning off autoplay for media/devices.
