What's your USB-C? I just tried a thumb drive and external storage, and both are working fine.

First go to Settings/ Security and privacy/Auto blocker and toggle that off if it is on. When the physical connection is made, the phone should show a USB icon in the status bar. Swipe down to get the notification, then tap that related notification. It should then show a connection type to use. Choose
"Transferring files" or "Transferring images". Then see if the external drives appear.

Also while Auto Blocker is off, tap on it and scroll down and disable "Turn on automatically". If you do not it will enable again after 30 minutes.
