i have just installed the newest/latest OS to my F2-424 and Plex etc is still unable to access the external USB drive. So then I uninstalled Plex from the NAS - noting I deleted all Plex and Plex Transcode folders on the main drive as well - and restarted the NAS.
Then I re-installed Plex, and I am now able to access the External USB files from Plex and my network!
