Adding an External Hard Drive
Connecting an External Drive
Your TeraStation includes USB ports (the number of ports depends on your model), and you can connect external
drives to these ports. Once connected they appear as shared folders on the TeraStation. Formatted drives are detected
automatically. Unformatted drives should be formatted in Settings.
After a USB drive is recognized, Windows adds “usbdisk X” under the TeraStation in “Network”, where “X” is the USB port
where the hard drive is connected.
The following USB devices are supported by the TeraStation:
• USB storage devices
• Card readers (except for card readers that can recognize two or more memory cards)
• Digital cameras
• USB-connected UPSs
• USB printers
Buffalo external USB drives are recommended.
These devices are not supported:
• DUB and DIU series drives
• Hubs, mice, and keyboards
