I cannot get my pink pogoplug to recognize and NTFS drive. My pogo has 2.1.2 firmware

I had a Western Digital (WD) drive that was encrypted via truecrupt with an NTFS partition. I spend a few hours trying to figure out how to mount it before giving up. I have since reformatted the drive to NTFS with no encryption.

Problem is, my pogoplug web interface does not show the drive. It shows the filesystem type as "---{settings.format.(null)}---" which is from the old encrypted version. The web interface also shows a USB key that hasn't been plugged in for a day or so. If I ssh into the pogoplug and do an "fdisk -l", I can see my ntfs drive:

Device Boot        Start         End             Blocks              Id           System
/dev/sda1               1          182402       1465135104     7             HPFS/NTFS

I have tried ejecting the devices via my.pogoplug.com, both the incorrectly identified WD drive and the nonexistant USB key, but nothing happens. I have tried rebooting the pogoplug - nothing. I have tried unregistering the pogoplug then re-registering it, still nothing.

Is there some sort of cache I can clear on the device? I'm at a loss for how to fix this. and any help would be appreciated.
