What should I do if Omada Hardware Controller cannot detect USB Drive?
Contents
This article provides solutions on how to troubleshoot when your external USB drive is not detected by the Omada Hardware Controller.
- OC200v1/v2, OC300v1, OC400v1, C5300v1
- USB drive
Before troubleshooting, make sure that the USB drive works properly when connected directly to a computer.
Step 1. Check USB drive format type
Currently, the Hardware Controller supports USB hard drives in NTFS and FAT32 formats, but not ExFAT format. If your USB drive is in an unsupported format, format it to a supported one or replace the USB drive.
Step 2. Check USB drive encryption
If you are using a hardware-encrypted USB drive, decrypt it and try again.
Step 3. Check the USB drive partition
If your USB drive partition is abnormal, the Hardware Controller will not detect it. Please format it or replace the USB drive.
If you are using a brand new USB drive without partitions, the Hardware Controller will not detect it. Please create partitions on it or replace the USB drive.
Step 4. Check if the USB drive requires an additional power adapter
Usually, the Hardware Controller can power up the USB drive. For some USB drives, an additional power adapter is required.
If your USB drive requires power more than the output current of the USB Port (Power supply standard: OC200v1/OC200v2: 5V/1A; OC300v1/OC400v1/C5300v1: 5V/2A), but does not have an additional power adapter, the USB drive will not work properly with the Hardware Controller.
If the problem persists, contact TP-Link Support and provide your USB drive model and format for troubleshooting.
Now you have successfully resolved the USB detection issue on your Omada Hardware Controller.
