Moving content from android box to USB drive

    I have a Beelink android box that's filling up with content. Bought a separate drive which I've connected to the Beelink, formatted, and can see it listed on the device as storage.

    However, for the life of me I can't figure out how to move content to it. When I open the file manager on the device it doesn't appear, just the internal drive.

    Any suggestions?

    You could try another file manager app, instead of default install one. Which hopefully have access to both storage.

    If that fails, setup a samba server on the box and copy contents from that on your PC over wifi.

    One you have the content copied/backup then delete form the box.

    ^^^ Try searching that forum, for other suggestions?
