Does anyone know if the Note 10 Plus can access an 8TB Portable Hard Drive ? I would like to use it with both my computer and Note 10 Plus to back up and transfer files …. I found this 8TB Portable HD ….

I know as a USB connection to a PC you can see the phone in your windows file explorer so any drive you can manipulate there as you like straight to send from the phone.

I've also noticed with both the DEX app and also with SideSync when the phone is connected by Bluetooth, the phone does not appear on the PC's file explorer unless it is also still connected by USB.

Lastly I've got a 500MB OTG thumb drive I use which connects seamlessly with no issue. Not sure if 8TB will work with OTG however...

Use the OTG device that comes in the box with your phone. Use the cable that comes with the phone charger. Boom, you should have access to the HDD granted it has its own power cord.
