    USB hard drive not recognized in Lubuntu.

    Hello all,

    I have purchased a USB 3,0 hard drive but Lubuntu does not see it at all when I go to file manager. Have you any ideas ? please note I'm only a user of Lubuntu and other than that have no technical knowledge. One thing I do noticed is that when plugged in to the PC's USB'S the light on the hardrive flash's and in the other it remains constant ,not sure if that is relavent.

    Thanks all.

    Brad

    Are you willing to try some command lines in a terminal window? In that case I can suggest that you start with

    Code:
    lsusb
    and
    Code:
    sudo lsblk -f
    Copy and paste the output into a reply here.



    Please post the output between code tags like this

    [code]
    output
    [/code]

    to get output like this

    Code:
    output
    Edit: You can also try with

    Code:
    sudo lsblk -o name,fstype,size,label,vendor,model
    and edit the output into a reply.
