Etcher doesnt recognize USB drive

See original GitHub issue
  • Etcher version: 1.2.1

  • Operating system and architecture: mac OS High Sierra version 10.13.2

  • Image flashed: ubuntu-16.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso

  • Do you see any meaningful error information in the DevTools? No. And my laptop is detecting the external drive.

This is the current output, however the device is also listed in Etcher now. I’ll repost when I hit the bug again.
