Title: I can't connect my External hard drive
Post by: Jane370 on July 05, 2014, 11:19:14 AM

Hi everyone, =)

I'm french (so sorry for bad English) and I just bought a NAS D'link DNS 320.
My problem is I can't see (in local and via internet) my external hard drive 3To connected on the USB of the NAS. I can see my hard drive in the management software throught system management >> usb devices >> usb storage information but not elsewhere.

I did some test :  I've connected a usb flashdrive and I see it well on my network, no problem (format NTFS just as my hard drive).

I was thinking it was a problem of size of my hard drive but I have a 50Go partition on it and I can't see it.

hard drive : segate baracuda 3To compatible with the NAS (tested by D-link)

Please help me ! :D
Thanks ! =)

It is not surprising that you can not see the USB connected drive because that function is not available with the standard firmware.

The USB port is there either for use as a print server port for a USB printer or to allow the contents of a USB drive to be copied to the DNS-320.  That is all, sorry.
