Hi,
I am having trouble installing and getting the Samsung T7 (not Touch) to work on my iPad Pro 2020 iOS 16.1.1
I have already formatted the T7 on my MBA, so that its SSD T7 format is APFS encrypted case-sensitive.
However, I can’t seem to get the T7 to work in iOS on my iPad Pro 2020.
What do else do I need to do to get this newly purchased SSD to work on iOS?
thanks for your help

Okay.
The ONLY place external drives will appear is in the Files app.
If when you open the files app, you do not see the Samsung T7 Flash drive, with the drive still connected,
For much newer design iPad models, without a Home button, try the new simple hard reset/forced restart procedure for the new 2018-2022 iPad Pros, 2020/21 iPad Air 4 and 5, the 2021 iPad Mini 6 models and the new 2022,,10th gen base models,
1. Press and release the volume button closest to the top Power button
2. Then immediately press and release the volume button farthest from the top Power button.
3. Then, press and hold the top single sleep/wake/power button You will see the Slide to Power off button, but keep on holding down the power button until you see the Apple logo, then let it go.
Once you have performed all the steps, wait for a few seconds and your 2018-2022 iPad will boot up completely to the iPad’s Lock screen.
Check the Files app again to see if the drive appears.
Best of Luck to You!
thx for replying Michel.
I am still very new to Apple ecosystem and MacOS and iOS
But on my MBA, as far as I can tell using disk utility, the T7 is formatted as a single partition
thanks for your help
Is the drive formatted with a single partition?
