Hey there pracom,
I'm sorry to hear that your USB storage and the Chromecast aren't playing nicely. Troubleshooting these issues can be finicky, so I'd be happy to help out. It looks like in the old thread you linked, Ajkvancouver was able to get his to work with a higher power supply, 65W. What wattage does your hub have? Of course, I would also double-check to make sure that your Google TV's firmware is up-to-date.
I look forward to your response, and if you have any other questions or concerns for me, please let me know!
Best regards,
Jeran

I have a 45W power supply which, by all discussions I've read, should be more than adequate to power both the Chromecast and the hub. The important fact is that the storage access was previously working using this same power supply. The firmware is set to automatically update so it should be the most recent version. Can you tell me what the current firmware version is so that I can confirm that it is up to date.

Hiya pracom,
The latest firmware version for the Chromecast with Google TV 4K is QTS1.220504.008.
Best regards,

Yes, that is the version installed on my device. Do you have any other suggestions for troubleshooting my issue?

Hiya pracom,
I think it would be best to have Chromecast Support reach out to you, as they would have access to more troubleshooting tools than I would. If you don't mind, would you be able to fill out this form to have them contact you?
Best regards,

Hey there pracom,
It looks like we've received your form. You should have someone from Chromecast Support reach out to you via e-mail, so feel free to continue the conversation over there. Unless you had any more questions for us here on the forums, I'll go ahead and lock this thread in 24 hours.
I hope you have a good weekend!
Best regards,
