Migrate USB Drive from Proxmox server to new one

[Deltamike]

Hello
I had a old home server running proxmox 7 and now i have a new machine and installed proxmox 8 and migrated all instances with no problem.
The only problem i have is a external usb drive. I plug it on new server and he appears on node disks but i dont can't acess it and use it.
I dont want to wipe and create another drive from 0, i just want to preserve and use my files from extenal drive.
What am i missing out?

Thank you

Hi,

Can you please provide us the output of this `cat /etc/pve/storage.cfg` command from both nodes PVE 7 and PVE 8, and the output of lsblk as well?

This is the output of proxmox 8, on old server i can't acess it right now because is disconnected

Well, can you please post the output of `mount` command?

Hi, i solved problem backing up files, wiping disk and setup disk starting from scratch.
I couldn't find proper solution.
