Sometimes.
Right click over your my computer icon
Select manage
go to disk management
Do you see it there?
If not, you need drivers
If yes, what is the drive letter you see?
If your network is up, just attach it to a workstation and push the
files to the server from the workstation, USB works sometimes.
Sometimes you have to play with drive letters. I have plenty of dead
USB thumbdrives I need to toss.
