What are you running LMS on ?

An easy check regarding readability is to try to browse down in the
folder structure on the drive while you are settng it up for use in LMS
if you cant even see any subfolders , this suggest some permission issue
?

Have you put the files in a folder titled "My Music"?
The first time I tried using a USB stick my Touch did nothing until I
moved all the various folders into a My Music folder.

Very old info but I'm sure most is still relevant:

Touch and USB / SD Troubleshooting & best practices for best
performance

USB or SD card devices

-   Check the formatting of the device, Touch supported formats:  FAT16,
FAT32, NTFS, ext2, ext3
-   Touch can only see/use a single partition, format as a single
partition, or use only the first partition for all relevant music files
-   Remove any included USB/SD device “utilities” as these can cause
issues
-   Make sure there is at least 10% free space (20% even better)
-   Remove any non-music related files (videos, documents, programs,
pictures, data, etc…)
-   Or, if removing such files is not an option, place a . (dot) in front
of folders that are not music related (folders not containing music
files, album art, playlists).  A simple (dot) in front of a folder means
that TinySBS will ignore these and (hopefully) greatly speed up scan
times. 
-   Attach device directly to your computer and run basic maintenance
utilities (disk cleanup, error checking, defrag)
-   Storage unit must be writable (Touch’s server must install files and
be able to write to these files)
-   Quick Test:  Place a small, single folder of music on the device for
initial testing (why have it scanning for hours if it isn’t going to
complete the scan) 


USB HD

-   Try an external USB power source,  HD power supply or a powered USB
hub.  (Touch may not have enough bus power to power the USB HD)
-   Try a different USB cable
-   HD Sleep mode can cause issues (may have to completely rescan HD every
time it “wakes”)
-   If you turn OFF Touch or HD, or unplug HD, Touch must completely
rescan the entire HD

Very useful tutorial & configuration ideas to get the most out of the
very limited Touch inbuilt server:

Stick a few .mp3 or .flacs on the drive, does the Touch see them.

Is the USB drive a portable, or is it powered, The Touch's USB power out
is barely sufficient to power a USB drive.

Put some .wav's on a USB stick or SD card, do they get seem?
