Windows does not always spot your network drives?
Windows does not always spot your network drives?
Hello! Here is how I set it up: My router, an ASUS RT-ACRH13, is connected to a USB port on my Mediasonic ProBox HF2-SU3S2 box that holds two hard drives and one solid state drive. This whole setup plugs into a Lenovo ThinkPad Thunderbolt 4 Dock and the laptop itself running Windows 11. If I plug the entire unit directly into the laptop, the computer can read all four drives easily and let me format them or save files there. However, if I run it over the network instead of straight to the laptop, Win11 won't see those SSDs unless I take out the hard drives from the box first. The router sees everything fine no matter how I connect things. Is there any other way to make my computer read both the sticks and the networks at once? Should I just use a direct connection instead of the network (which would mean I can't access those drives on my tablet), or do I have to remove all the hard drives from the box anyway? Thanks for helping out!
