External HD not found? - X82 - 22nd Dec, 2012 05:03 AM Hi guys Literally got my Pi today and dived right in. I put on xbian and it loaded up with no major issues. It recognised my wireless mouse great too. I connected my 1tb external HD but when I browse XBMC to find it, I cant. Theres network connections, home folder, root filesystem,upnp devices etc. But nothing saying Samsung 1TB or anything like that. Have I missed anything here? I want to point out I'm very new to linux, beyond trying out Ubuntu for a few hours RE: External HD not found? - CurlyMo - 22nd Dec, 2012 05:30 AM Go to: Root filesystem --> media --> usb Does that point to your external hdd?

I think there isn't enough power for it. I need to get myself a powered USB hub. I tried another 500GB HD which has a power adapter, the Pi picked it up straight away. RE: External HD not found? - CurlyMo - 22nd Dec, 2012 06:31 AM That would have been my second suggestion Let us know if it fixed it... |
