New Shared Drive wont show on WDTV Live

WD Legacy Products WD TV Live & Live Plus

Hello all,

I’ve recently added a new Hard Drive to my PC for extra capacity. The new drive works fine, and I have the file sharing turned on. I can view/share with all these drives using my portable laptop just fine so networking doesn’t seem a problem.

But unfortunatly my WDTV Live is not recognising the new Hard Drive, it will still see the two previous ones but not the new one. I don’t know if this has something to do with the fact that its a NAS drive or something else?

I’ve rebooted my computer and the WDTV, Cleared saved network share login, Cleared Media Library…

Any ideas?

Shared drives:
Hitachi (2TB Drive) - Connected via SATA
Seagate FreeAgent (1TB Drive) - Connected via USB
WD Red - NAS (4TB Drive) - Connected via SATA

Thanks in advance!

I’ve resolved this issue. Here are the details for future reference.

The problem was of “Security”, I had to add the User “Everyone” and give it full access to the new drive. This had been done on the other drives aswell, but I forgot to do this step on the new one.
