There have been a few posts on this as you are far from the only person affected, including myself. Seems to be related APFS and external USB drives. I don't think anyone has found a solution for it really so far, had someone buy a thunderbolt enclosure instead and another suggestion of installing it internally. For now we are hoping Apple may do something about it for the next update.
