USB passthrough issue

Good Day all

I am having a very strange issue with ESXi 6. I have a client who backup to an external connected to the host using Veeam. It worked fine for over a year until about 2 months ago when the external would not be picked up when they rotated them (there are 2 and neither were picked up) I tried rebooting the VM and changing the USB port - didn't work. I rebooted the host then the external picked up. Each time we rotate the drive we need to reboot the host... which is not ideal... Any suggestions? I am at the point where the only way forward I see is to reinstall ESXi (which is something I want to avoid)

Thank you!!!!
