[linux-lvm] Unable to find device with UUID XXX.

This is not looking good.

I have tried to re-attach the old ( probably failing ) drive to the test
machine, and I see this in dmesg:

This is a Seagate ( as you can see ) packaged USB external drive.

With these errors, would it be worthwhile trying to extract the drive
from the case and try it either internally or in another case?


Thank you,
