Q: USB-drive through Time Capsule works but not directly to Mac

What I want to achieve:

- Access the USB-drive when connected directly to the MBA with USB-cable.

 

Working setup:

- USB-drive ('Coffee') connected to Time Capsule and used as an external drive to save files (like huge Photo-libraries).

 

Not working:

- USB-drive ('Coffee') directly connected to the MBA.

 

Possible issue:

- The drive is secured by some setting I might have done on the Time Capsule and therefore only the Time Capsule can access it.
