With my Windows 10 computer I can access my Nvidia but I also connected an external HDD into the Shield (via a USB-Hub) and how could I access this external HDD from my computer?
I only see the Shield and don’t see the HDD which is formatted exFAT.
Who could advice me?

Try formating the drive with NTFS and connect to your phone.
Its because NTFS can be used for unlimited storage.
Still if your phone can't accept it, let me know
exFAT can handle 1tb also. Just do a quick reformat with either one. That should do the trick.

Hi everyone!
Is a5 2017 capable of accessing large ext storage devices?
I tried plugging in my seagate 2tb ext hdd using otg adapter but it wont let me access any files. It will only show seagate storage corrupted error. But if i plug my ext hdd in to any computer, everything works fine.
Otg adapter is ok since i can access my 16gb flashdrive connected to my device.
My device is a5 2017 running on android 6.1 and my ext hdd is seagate 2tb which i divide into 4 partitions.

2 TB? Do you use the power adapter also for your storage? Normally if you connect your storage device to a phone it will require it's own connector for power supply so it can run smoothly

Beside power supply issue. And also, maybe android cannot read NTFS file system, phone just can read FAT32, exFAT
Both of you maybe right.. the larger the size, the more power it requires and my hdd is ntfs as well.. was hoping theres another way around though..
I have a Samsung Portable SSD T7 and wanted to transfer files from Phone to it. The SSD already has files on it but Phone says I need to format it.
is there any way around this? I don't want to have to transfer all the files off the SSD just to convince phone it is formated.
thanks,
the only way I've ever been able to transfer files to a larger usb drive, is with USB Media Explorer (formerly Nexus Explorer). It costs a few bucks (but you can get a refund if it doesn't work).
The drive has to be in FAT32/NTFS or HFS format type, but it should work.
If it's formatted in ExFAT you may be able to use exFAT/NTFS for USB by Paragon Software. I've bought it to use my ExFAT formatted MicroSD card through an adapter - I don't have any external hard drives or SSDs to test with. I still use X-plore File Manager to access the card through Paragon's app.
