So finally I install the Raspberry Pi I bought a few weeks ago and wanted
to add an external HDD.
I plugged in the external hard drive and /var/log/syslog printed the
following:
Dec 14 17:02:55 pi kernel: [ 759.981949] usb 1-1.3: new high-speed USB
device number 8 using dwc_otg
Dec 14 17:02:55
Aside from regularly installing updates I've made no changes - but the
problem went away for no apparent reason. I guess I'll never know what
was causing the delay.

Are you providing the external HDD with sufficient electricity? The
Raspberry is most likely not capable of providing enough current...

Hmm, good question. The Raspberry does see the device when it is connected,
so is it possible that it needs more
power after later on?
How can I check?
If the problem is lack of current, how can I solve that? Can I put one of
these usb hubs that also provide power between the two?

On Sun,
Get a powered USB hub (i.e. a usb hub which also connects to a wall power
socket). I'm not familiar with RPi USB version but check for USB 3.0 vs.
2.0.

Raspberry Pi uses USB2.0, it can't provide enough current to big peripheral
devices full stop.
It's so bad that plugging in a disk-on-key while it's running can cause a
sufficient voltage drop to reboot the system (after which the d-o-k will
work).
That's why you need to have a powered USB hub, USB
