External Hard drive not working after xbox series x reset (keep games and apps)

Hello.

I've had my external hard drive since I got the xbox one a year after it originally released. I got the series x and I've had no problems with my external hard drive.

I was having problems with creating saves on a game and I've read that reseting the xbox while keeping games and apps fixes the issue. It did fix the save issue however now my xbox is not detecting my external hard drive anymore.

I've tried the different USB ports, restarting the xbox many times. I've tried plugging the external into my computer. The device manager detects the hard drive but I can't do anything to it (most likely it's formatted for the xbox).

Anyone had this issue before?
