Can't get my Laptop to recognize my External HDD. Light

Have you tried turning it off then on again?

>>56061294
Did you mount it?

>>56061320

Yeah. Unplugged the power, unplugged the usb.

It doesn't do anything.

How can I determine if it's fully crashed?

>>56061294
have you tried installing linux?

Take it out of the enclosure, the adapter piece goes bad all the time.

some laptops have "charge only" usb ports. Try another.

>>56061609

Nope. Nothing.

It's spinning. And it's hot. So it's doing something. But I'm just not getting it recognized by the laptop.

>>56061619
does the device manager do something?

>>56061635

It's only picking up the one internal HDD, not the external one.

Update:

Just got the error message:

>the last usb device you connected to this computer malfuntioned and Windows does not recognize it

do you have a desktop? you can probably test the disk putting it inside using a couple of SATA cables.

Having many external disks in the past my money is on a broken adapter. You can get a case for cheap to replace it.

>reboot
>right click This PC/My Computer>Manage
>Disk Management
>right click on the disk
?????
call yourself a fag

Laptop.

How much and where?

something like this

When i plug my adaper it shows ATA/ATAPI adapter in Devices and Printers. It shows the disk in Disk Managment, but when i try to initialize, it fails with 'Cyclic redundancy check'. (Cheap AliExpress adapter) Any thoughts?

>>56062056
disk is physically damaged

you can try a slow format and see it it becomes usable again, but it's not likely.

Can formating be done from BIOS? I took HDD from my laptop that i previously damaged OS on (instaled xp on separate partition for dual booting, then i messed something with bootloader and i get passed BIOS screen but after that only black screen shows up)

>>56062331
you can try hiren's boot or a linux live USB

Thnx, will report back
