How to I get external devices to connect to my MACOS Ventura 13.4. I have the adapter. My hard drive works, but my disk player does not connect.

I bought an adapter for my new MAC and now can use my external hard drive and USB thumb drives. I cannot connect my external disk player. Please tell me this is just a setting I need to change.

MacBook Pro 15″, OS X 10.10

If you have an Apple SuperDrive, it has to be plugged directly into a port, no hub or dock.
