Just as the title says. I sometimes have problems seeing my hard drives in El Capitan...but its quite intermittent.
When I boot in to El Capitan I only see the El Capitan Hard drive either on my desktop or in Finder. No other hard drives show up in either Finder or on the desktop. Plus, El Captian hard drive is showing as external not internal. I enter Disk utility and see all my Hard drives there and fully mounted. The odd thing is that they are all showing as external hard drives with the exception of my actual external drive showing properly as external. I can then click on each hard drive and click 'show in finder' and the contents of the hard drive will pop up in a new finder window but not in Finder itself or on the desktop. I then I proceed to unmount and remount each hard drive and they begin to appear both in Finder and on the desktop. This is a strange issue that I am finding difficult to troubleshoot due to the fact that its intermittent. I have 5 internal Hard drives and 1 external USB 3.0 Hard drive. I also have a USB 3.0 Lexar card reader connected. They all work totally fine except for the above issues.
Other times El Capitan boots totally fine without these issues.
Anyone else experiencing similar issues?
