      @DuckSalmon If you can open the USB drive and than you "loose" it, it is most likely a power issue.

          @DuckSalmon You have to check if your power supply has enough current (amperes) for everything that you have connected to the Pi. Does your usb hard drive has a sepparate power supply?

              How much amperes does your power supply have? And why are you using a bluetooth dongle when the Pi 3 has bluetooth builtin?

                  @DuckSalmon The offiicial power supply has 2.5A. If yours have only 0.5, that's the problem.

                      If it really is the official power supply, that shouldn't be the problem. Normal Kodi doesn't have automount, only kodi-standalone. Either launch kodi-standalone in terminal or mount your drive manually and see if it works.
