I'd like to place a 2-bay SATA enclosure on our LAN. Bought an Insignia 2-bay unit from Best Buy. Connecting it to the n/w was problematic, but FIRST... When I connect it directly to a Windows 11 laptop (USB 3.0) , the computer sees the drives and their partitions under Disk Management but they do not appear as logical drives in File Manager.
OTOH, my Chromebook can list and manipulate the files, albeit in rather funky drive designations. I've never had trouble recognizing external drives like this. The actual drives were once connected to the LAN in a D-Link enclosure.
Stumped as how to get W11 to see the drive contents.
