Yes, you can use a powered external hard drive. Just plug it into the USB port (or a compatible USB hub), and the Chromebook should recognize it in the Files app. Make sure the drive is formatted in a compatible file system (like exFAT, FAT32, or NTFS read-only).
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The ASUS CM1402CM2A supports powered external hard drives via its USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C and USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports. Compatibility with ChromeOS should be verified, as some external storage devices may require specific formatting or additional drivers. https://www.asus.com/laptops/for-home/chromebook/asus-chromebook-cm14-cm1402c/techspec/
