External Drive not listed under Devices

Hello,
I recently (within the last week) bought a WD MyBook Studio 500GB HDD and have been using it for my media storage. When downloading files, through a torrent client, I have it automatically save to my External, but today something weird happened. The external shows up on my desktop but not under "Devices" in the Finder. It DOES show up if i click my computer in Devices, so its listed as a subset of my computer instead of an extra device. My torrent client gives errors when trying to access the data on the external, so i have no idea whats going on. Video link at screencast is attached just for clarification. Running on Firewire 800. http://screencast.com/t/j3Nm4NtolKo
