I've got everything working great on my Hackintosh, except I've come across 3 different USB 3.0 drives that cause OSX to freeze. The drives are Hitachi HGST Touro Mobile USB 3.0 portable 500GB hard drive, Lacie d2 USB 3.0 2TB hard drive, and a Seagate Backup Plus for Mac 1TB portable USB 3.0 hard drive. What's odd is that we took a SATA-USB 3.0 interface from a non-Mac version of the same drive and worked fine. Also, other Seagate and Western Digital portable USB 3.0 drives that I have tried work fine. And these 3 drives that freeze work fine when plugged in via USB 2.0.
I'm using an Asus Maximus V Extreme motherboard, and this happens with rear and front USB 3.0 ports. The DSDT is patched using the Maximus V Extreme, Intel HD4000, and Discrete Graphics patches from PJALM's repo. I also installed the USB 3.0 Universal option with Multibeast 5.4.1. I tried the Lacie and CalDigit USB 3.0 options in an older version of Multibeast with no luck. Any thoughts what could be causing this?
EDIT UPDATE: I just solved the problem on my system. I removed GenericUSBXHCI.kext that was installed with USB 3.0 Universal in Multibeast. Now all the USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports work properly with all drives.
