“The device is not ready” is a common error that usually occurs when you connect your USBs, HDDs, SD cards or other data storage devices to a PC and try to access its data on Windows. It usually indicates that your storage drive is not prepared for the operation. When this error occurs, you won’t be able to read/write on your storage drive. Fear not!
