Bit of advice please chaps, I was looking to add and external hard drive complete with my music/movie files. When you add a hard drive it says you have to format so you lose all the files you have on the drive... Any way around this? Drive is already fat32 btw.
Many thanks

Especially if the drive is external, you don't need to format the drive, try backing out (Return/Home) of that screen, then pop into ES File Explorer (or your preferred File Manager app) and check if the USB device shows up in the LOCAL menu (for ES File Explorer).
