Q: Why won't my new hard drive mount on my new MacBook Pro but will mount on my old MacBook Pro

I bought a new MacBook Pro to replace an older MacBook Pro.   I also bought a new Toshiba 1T portable hardrive to backup my new computer.   The Toshiba hard drive will not mount on the new computer, but it will mount on my old computer.  

 

However, I have two other portable hard drives (320 MB and 500 MB) that do mount on the new computer.   I am puzzled as to why the new MBP will not display my Toshiba 1T portable HD.

 

Any ideas?

    THANK YOU!!!! plcosta's idea solves my problem too. Frist, I tought it is a problem with Tuxera NTFS (because of tuxera error message - I have a NTFS USB3.0 disk from PWX (Toshiba)). But now I tried with an extension and it works. THANKS A LOT -- I was searching for 1 week and also a technical support call with Apple could not help.

    Very happy!
