Mounting second external HDD

xenic

Recently I bought myself a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B and trying to set it up as a streaming device on my home network.

Currently I'm trying to mount 2 identical external HDD's ( 2x Lacie Rugged 500GB models )

 

But it only detects one HDD at a time, even tough they are both contected. I suspect that this is due to the fact that both of them use the same ID of some sort.

As seen in the image, i insert the HDD 'Vault2' and mount it. Then i mount the second one 'Vault1', but it gives me the error that it is already mountend as 'Vault2'

 

Any solution to this?

Thanks

This is what i got.

It only show 'Vault 2', the second drive.

 

The mmcblk0-drive, is my SD-card with the OS on it. So ignore that.

 

Note:

I know for a fact that Vault1 is working. If i connect them the other way around, only Vault1 would be detected and no sign of Vault2
