Errored:the device is not ready

[itsamee]

Please explain why, despite my hard drive being 'ready' I'm getting this error message? Thanks

The "device is not ready" error is very likely resulted from file system errors or bad sectors on the drive, so let the Windows disk check utility help. 1) Right-click on the drive which you wish to check and select Properties. 2) Click on the Tools tab. Under the Error-checking, click on the Check button.

Has nothing to do with qBittorrent. Use Google search if need further help with it.
