Your problem might be that your HDD is 3tb, most Panasonic models which support external HDD's only support drives between 160gb to 2tb.
Just to make sure, have you registered the HDD correctly with the TV?, using the remote you should go into Menu > Setup > USB HDD Setup > Device setup, and register the HDD. |

I think that just registering the drive then Deletes all the data on it..which I do not think is what is wanted here

Most, if not all Smart TV's and blu-ray players with USB media player capability can't cope with an external HDD larger in capacity than 2TB.
