I want share an external usb drive via the airport time capsule.
I cannot get it to show in the Disk tab of the configuration panel of the Airport Time Capsule.
I am looking for a step by step description how to configure this
How is the hard drive formatted? If you do not know, temporarily connect the drive directly to your Mac and it will appear on the desktop. Right-click on the drive and then click on Get Info. Look for the Format. What is it?
The USB port on the Time Capsule is underpowered, so even if your hard drive has its own power supply, the drive may may not appear on the Time Capsule. In some cases, you need to use a powered USB hub with the Time Capsule.
