External USB disk cannot be mounted

Hi,
I am running Suse on a fujitsu server. The problem is that it will no fully load the usb external disk. When plugged in, dmesg shows that indeed a usb disk has been plugged in ,but gives no devpath e.g sda,sdb.

lsusb shows the disk vendor (western digital) but nothing else.Whats goin on here?

dmesg output:
usb 5-2: new high speed USB device using address 2
usb 5-2: Product: External HDD
usb 5-2: Manufacturer: Western Digital
usb 5-2: SerialNumber: 575845583037473735303832
usb 5-2: USB disconnect, address 2
usb 5-1: new high speed USB device using address 3
usb 5-1: Product: External HDD
usb 5-1: Manufacturer: Western Digital
usb 5-1: SerialNumber: 575845583037473735303832


You can see there is no no sdX

Using:
ls /dev/ | wc -l

before and after plugging in the disk,there is no change in number of device.

Anyone?
