Hi, Is that a USB storage drive or a NAS (network) storage drive? If you have a NAS drive, it should work, as the file system runs under Linux, with a web based admin to set up specific shares on that disk which are easily accessible, but on a USB disk you may have issues with FAT, you will need to repartition the drive as a start.
