external hard drive problem with el capitan
I have 2 external hard drives which I back up time machine to regularly. They are both freedom hard drives. One of them works fine, but the other one is causing a problem. When I plug it into the USB port, it shows in the finder for a couple of seconds, and then disappears and I get a message saying the disk was not ejected properly. I also have an old macbook air, and there is no problem with that. I have run first aid, on the external hard drive, and even reformatted the drive (on the macbook Air) but the problem is still the same. The external hard drive works fine on the macbook air, but the problem persists on the new macbook pro.
I have El Capitan on both MacBooks, but 10.11 on the macbook air, and 10.11.1 on the macbook pro, so I am guessing that there is a big in 10.11.1
Can anyone back this theory up by any chance? Or has anyone experienced a similar problem?
Mac Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10)
