I'm running Mint, and have an external USB drive plugged in. It is not powered - it gets its power from the mini-PC.

Occasionally I get this message and I've no idea why. It might be after rebooting the machine but I'm not sure (sorry).

The only thing I did with the drive is rename it (to "1tbDrive"). Could that be the problem? (I did that in the Disks application).

Can you share a content of /etc/fstab file? It is the first place I would check in your situation.
