Cannot see and open USB device in Dolphin

I have connected some devices via USB interfaces, external HD or tablet etc…

I can see them as follows:

But not mounted as devices in Dolphin, as follows:

What can I do to just use them in the GUI to drag and drop files?
Danke!

Hi @mzoli,

Is the drive formatted?

Please provide the output of:

fdisk -l

Tip:

When posting terminal output, copy the output and paste it here, wrapped in three (3) backticks, before AND after the pasted text. Like this:

pasted text

This will just cause it to be rendered like this:

Sed
sollicitudin dolor
eget nisl elit id
condimentum
arcu erat varius
cursus sem quis eros.

Instead of like this:

Sed sollicitudin dolor eget nisl elit id condimentum arcu erat varius cursus sem quis eros.

Thereby increasing legibility thus making it easier for those trying to provide assistance.

Oops, I didn’t know the syntax policy. Thank you!

I restarted the PC and now I can see the external HD. :grin:
