can't find usb hard drive!

Sat May 03, 2014 9:27 am
When using K3b to make a disc, where do you find or how do you get files from a usb hard drive?
Im not a Linkus user, just trying to help a friend.
He can find files to burn on his computer but not his usb drive.
K3b does not recognize the usb drive or we don't know where to find it.
thanks all

After connecting the drive (and ensuring it is powered) the system should recognise it and display the partitions on it in the Dolphin sidebar (on the left side of the window by default) as well as in the Device Notifier (on a Plasma Desktop) which is located in the system tray (it should popup when the drive is connected)
