external hard drive scan thru chromebook

[healing41]

Hi everyone,

Can someone tell me if it is possible (and where to) scan an external hard drive for viruses etc. attached to my acer11 chromebook?

thanks,

You can select/deselect drives for scanning by going to:
Start Center > System Scan > Stop Scan

Click the dropdown beside "Show scan results", and choose "Scan with different options".

Here, you can select/deselect any connected drives to include or exclude them from the System Scan.
