Well known issue with these drives. Affects PC users too.

From PT on XP to PT 12 on W10 and probably 10 WD Caviar Black drives on 3 computers - with and without PT - I've never had that issue happen. Of course, now that I've said that...

Re: Drives not mounting on restart!?!?
I used to use the WD black drives but never recall that issue. I did have a lot of problems with Missing drives that caused me to roll back El Capitan. When I got my new mac pro in January I went straight to a clean install of Sierra and no issues. I have several of the Lacie Porsche drives connected and they are flawless and have up to 8TB if you store a lot of stuff. I would recommend those if you decide to upgrade. Quiet, look really cool and you can stack en 3 high which makes it very space efficient. I have 5 connected...

Re: Drives not mounting on restart!?!?
Same issue with 2 WD Black 4TB drives here. Yes, it's s a known issue on both Mac and PC. They only mount after starting the computer not after a re-start.
aonly happens with the 4TB and up afaik. Frank
