Hi William, Can you describe the process you use to put your computer into standby? I really can't replicate this happening here and I've tried a couple of ways. The first thing I did is to put the computer to sleep by closing the screen. The computer went into it's power saving mode and when I opened the screen and pressed a key the computer came back up and the USB disk was mounted as before. The second thing I tried was putting the computer to sleep by pressing command-option-eject. The computer powered down and when I pressed a key the system comes back up as before with my USB disk mounted. The third thing I did was go into Preferences and look for any settings that may effect how the computer either goes to sleep or shuts down. The only thing I found is the energy saver tab where there are options that control when and if the computer goes to sleep. I can't find anything in the preferences that talks about going into an actual standby mode, just sleep modes. I'm truly at a loss here why this is happening to you. Describe how you put your system to sleep and maybe we can shed some light on the situation.
