The router sees the drive and the empty 310GB drive.  This is visible in Advanced Setup > USB Settings on the ADVANCED tab. (Pic 01)

But it doesn't appear in ReadySHARE on the BASIC tab (Pic 02) or in USB Storage > Basic Settings (Pic 03) or in USB Storage > Advanced Settings (Pic 04) on the ADVANCED tab.

I am able to access the one partition in Windows File Explorer at \\readyshare\T_Drive.

I have rebooted the router twice so far.

 

Thanks for your time and any help you can offer.
