HI Dave, just to be clear on this action you suggested , I open Disk Mngt and then select drive E (the last drive listed here) and Map this to drive F for example in order to see if PC will then detect the External drive as E. Is this correct ?

 

usb external harddrive is not detected

Hi,



Thank you for replying.

• Have you allocated drive letter for the external drive?
• Do you get any prompt when you connect the external drive to your PC?
• Is the external device getting detected under disk manager?

You will be able to view the contents of drives if you have allocated a drive name/letter. If you do not allocate a name/letter and if you try to view it on the PC, it will not be visible.



Connect the external device to the PC and follow the steps below to check if the external drive is getting detected:

• Open Run command by pressing Windows Key + R, type
  diskmgmt.msc and press Enter.
• Check if the external device is detected in this window.
• If the device is detected as unallocated, right click on the external drive and select
  New Simple Volume option. Follow the onscreen instructions where-in, in one of the page you will be asked to select a drive letter.
• Assign a drive letter and check if you are able to access the contents of the drive.

Write back to us with the answers to the above questions and status of the issue for further assistance. Your reply is most important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.

Have the same issue. But when I right click the options are grey only PROPERTIES and HELP are available. No drive letter is listed. It shows a white arrow going down inside a red circle next to DISK 1
