The USB Drive is Missing from Server Storage

A USB drive that has been successfully added to the Servers Backup Hard Drives or Storage
Hard Drives
can detach from the server. If your USB drive detaches from the server, the drive
will not be listed in the Windows Home Server Console Server Storage tab.

Some of the reasons a USB drive might become detached include,

• The USB Drive loses its power supply, or

• The USB cable comes loose from the drive or server.

Verify that your USB drive has power and the cable connecting the drive to the server is firmly
seated. Once the USB drive is reattached, it will be reappear on Server Storage tab.
