Seagate External Drive

I cannot access my Seagate external drive (maybe due to an iOS upgrade). Disk Utility shows it, but when I try to mount the drive, I get the message "Could not mount “Seagate Backup Plus Drive”. (com.apple.DiskManagement.disenter error 49153.)"

Any thoughts???

iMac 27″, macOS 13.3

Seagate external hard drive not mounting on iMac runner IOS Ventura, 13.3. I've had to drive for a while now and it was working perfectly until one morning last week where I woke up and it just stopped working. The Seagate external hard drive will not show up. It appears in the disk utility but I can not access the files. I get the following error message when it tries mounting. Could not mount “Seagate Backup Plus Drive”. (com.apple.DiskManagement.disenter error 49153.) Can someone help me so I don't lose all the files that are on the external hard drive? Thanks!

Any of these help?

Open Activity Monitor in Utilities, View>All Processes, sort on Name, see if fsck is running, if so force qui it.
