Q: USB drives not detected and mounting once in a while?

Has anyone had an updated Mac OS X v10.10.5/Yosemite not detecting and

mounting any USB drives (flash and HDD types) before? Even Disk Utility

wouldn't load up and froze (spinning colorful wheel). I had to shut down

to reboot, but Mac OS X wouldn't shut down (even after force quitting

Disk Utility) fully since it got stuck so a forced reboot was needed.

After that, things were back to normal. Ironically before it, the used

15" MacBook Pro (early 2013 model; Retina) was just booted up so it

can't be heat.

 

Thank you in advance.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5), Early 2013, 251 GB SSD, 15", etc.
