    Hi,

    What's the exact brand and model of the USB storage? And you could test to uninstall it in Device Manager and see if a reinstall will help. USB disks are supported though performence will be affected. So you may need to confirm with manufacturer to see if it is a known issue in Windows 2012.

    There are a few requirements to be met before you get this working. Is you USB device an unallocated device?
