Hi!
I had a 1Tb HDD for some time now, but i found out how useful this cloud storage really is.
I bought a 4Tb HDD, then switched it with the old, 1Tb drive.
But when i go to the router settings, it says, "Found 0 disks"....
Maybe 4Tb is too much for the router to handle?
Thanks!

The router is a V2 model.
I attempted to access the drive from the TP-Link GUI. Afterwards, devices can use it via SMB network shares. I know not a true NAS, but quite functional other than the 2TB limitation.

The router does not supply enough current on the USB port to run (at least all I have seen) an external HDD. To the best of my understanding, use only externally powered HDDs to the router.
