I'm just having the same problem. Lightroom suddenly cannot open files from an external hard drive, but will open files from my computer’s hard drive. This started right after I tried unsuccessfully to export a file to the external hard drive in question. Outside of Lightroom, I can access all files in this external HD.
Where is it that you click "choose"?
