[PROBLEM] HDD not dected

[TheOldPresbyope]

@spiros79 

So I finally got around to replicating as best I could your attempt to add a USB HD to moOde. I dug out an old no-name USB/hard drive enclosure containing a very old 1T hard drive (Western Digital?) and powered by an external 12vdc supply. I plugged it into a Pi ZeroW that happened to be running moOde 8.3.5 which I figured was close enough(!).

Turned it on and saw the following messages show up in the Linux syslog (/var/log/syslog)

Code:

...

And now the added file system shows up in /media/New Volume and can be listed using all the usual Linux commands. It happens to be an NTFS file system with some backups so nothing for moOde to use but it proves one can connect old stuff.

Do you see anything comparable in your syslog?
