I reinstalled Mountain Lion last night and since I did my external hard drive will not show up on the desktop or in Finder. In Disk Utility the hard drive shows up, but the only option is to eject or help. I have run the Western Digital tools and they all say it is fine. I also updated the firmware. The hard drive is only 4 months old. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Could it be indexing? Here is the system report for the USB drive:
