    Welcome to Android Central! So you're trying to connect a 500 GB external hard drive to the phone? Are you using an OTG cable? You can't connect hard drives directly to Android devices.

    Check out this article: How to connect USB drive, HDD to android phone or tablet like Nexus 7, Nexus 5, Galaxy S3, S4 via OTG
