Sorry to say, that didn't help at all. A dead rat would have been more helpful!

"like" this to keep it up top:
1. plug Hard Drive [HD] into USB slot on Time Capsule [TC] (& power cord, if necessary)
2. open "AIRPORT UTILITY"
3. click on "MANUAL SETUP" (@ bottom)
4. click "DISKS" (@ top)
5. check if new HD is listed, then click "FILE SHARING" (below "advanced")
6. make sure file sharing is ENABLED
7. secure shared disks "WITH TIME CAPSULE PASSWORD" (recommended)
8. RIGHT CLICK on TC picture (on left) & select "RESTART"
9. after a few mins, new HD will appear in finder in TC

@vigneshrk Thank you:)

It worked for me at least partially by just plugging in my Lacie to the Timecapsule USB. Partially meaning, I can access files 'other than' my time machine backups. My time machine backups show up but when I go into say 'Documents' folder of a particular date it shows an error saying 'The alias Documents can't be opened because the original item can't be found'.

thats wrong!!! you need to open your airport utility and makes new settings.

Child, you cannot "just plug in" a hard-drive to an Airport Express.
How can you be so wrong about things made to be most simple?
