What type of SD card are you using? Unplug, disable the media reader and Check if external USB works without issue, if it doesn't then its a USB port problem. Also you should consider a repair install of OS.

Refer to following similar issues:

Hope this will help.

Check that your card reader is "optimized for quick removal".

• Click Start, right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
• Click the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager.
• Expand Disk Drives, right-click your storage device, and then click
• Properties.
• Click the Policies tab, click Optimize for quick removal, and then click
• OK.

Naver remove the card reader or pen drive without using "Safely Remove hardware wizard" as long as you are sure that no data is being written to the drive.
