    Power cycle with external not connected and after reboot reconnectnot to another usb.go to settings /system/storage and it should be there.

    could be the hard drive itself tbh don't buy cheap ones if that's the case.

    I'd check the power on the external hard drive too. Make sure it's all plugged in to a working outlet and make sure it's switched on, and check all the plugs to the Xbox One to make sure it's hooked up properly. If it's still not connecting, it might be
    an issue with the hard drive itself. The Xbox One should pick it up and register it being there if it's hooked up and turned on. Good luck, I hope it fixes soon!
