New RT-AX3000 router running the latest Asus firmware. Trying to add a 4TB portable drive, the drive is formatted 4TB NTFS, I see errors in the system log when it tries to mount. I chanted the partition to 2TB but same issue. Any suggestions? Below are what I see in the system log.

Another Seagate external drive issue. Are you able to format it on the router and reboot without any errors?

Thanks for the quick reply. The drive is not recognized, no USB attached, so the GUI won't let me format it. If there is a way to format via a command line I am unaware.

THANKS
 
@ColinTaylor may be able to offer you that command-line option, but without been seen at all by the router, I don't think it will help.
