Actually it never got recognized as /dev/sd... my
system just recognize it as an USB storage device
using address 6. See below:

In past, when my PC was recognizing it, the log was:

On 5th May, using the same USB port I got:

So the Drive was not recognized... for this reason I
changed USB port but same result. Now every time I
plug the drive to whatever USB port I got a message
similar to the one of the 12th May (maybe changing the
scsi address part from 6 to 3)

The hard disk is already partitioned since it was used
under Windows and I'd like to copy some data from it.

Thanks,
