At first I thought this was related to Windows losing drives on wake. It started happening around the same time, it also involved waking up from sleep, and the CD/DVD drive was disappearing in Windows along with the vanishing hard drive.
The tale of Windows and the disappearing drive.
But while moving the cables fixed that problem, it didnāt fix this one.
It was only mildly annoying, especially compared to regularly losing access to a large chunk of local storage, so I figured Iād come back to it later.
As it turns out?
Other people are seeing this too.
Itās a recent bug in the Linux kernel.
At least with Fedoraās rapid kernel updates I probably wonāt have to wait too long between when the patch lands and when it hits my desktop. Itās been years since I compiled my own kernel, and I donāt feel like starting that up again now!
