My External HD will not show in SharePoint Utility
« on: June 15, 2012, 01:48:42 PM »

Hi all
I just purchased a Dir-825 Router Which is working great accept for sharepoint which will not display my
Verbatim HD.
I plugged the HD (Turned ON) to the USB on the back of the router but when I open the Sharepoint Utility all I get is No device Servers were found.
Can some one please help.

What version of FW is on the 825 currently.
What HW version is the router?
What Shareport version are you using?

Did you reformat the HDD for NTFS with a clean format?

Thanks FurryNutz for your reply
Hardware Version: B1  
Firmware Version: 2.06NA
Shareport version: 1.1.0 R1
And no I did not format the HDD for NTS it is currently  FAT32
But I also tried a WD  HDD with NTS Format also it did not work.

I would try NTFS as that seems to be the most preferred format for use with SP. I would also try SP v4.00 from the DIR-827 site as well.

Installing SP v4 and using my WD NTFS did the trick.
Now I have Connection
