When connect your drive to a PC with a USB port and find the external hard drive isn’t showing up, how to fix? This video will show you three feasible methods to fix external hard drive not showing up in computer. (You can check the Timestamps below for specific methods with detailed steps)
1. Check the Drive in Disk Management 01:19
2. Initializing a New External Drive 02:19

whether an external 1TB hard drive can serve as a space where applications will be inserted and used as if they were in a computer. while it is permanently connected to the computer. because I have very little space on my computer. whether it will remember the application data when turning the computer off and on as if it were in it

I am 75 and I am learning so much. Also I feel like I am channeling my father's interests. In the late 40's he became a radio and television technician for RCA. In the fifties he tried to explain to me the base two electronic base for computers....he bought a Heath Kit to demonstrate that. Funny when he got old he had no use for social media , emails and gaming but my mother jumped in with two feet. Yesterday I extracted 5 hard drives from old computers and one hard drive was not loading properly.

I have an external hard drive (internal hdd in an enclosure). I dropped it while it was switched off and unplugged the other week. Since then it has been working OK. Now, today, it isn't working. When I plug it in and go to My Computer, the green loading bar at the top is continuously there. If I right click on the hard drive (now called "Local Disk" then Windows Explorer will crash. It is like the hard drive is making everything hang. I try and run SeaTools or HDTune whilst HDD plugged in but nothing happens (something is blocking??) but when I unplug the hdd immediately both programs will open. I can't use these programs because of this problem, as when I plug it back in it wont find it. When I go into Computer Management and click Disk Management, It does nothing and just says Connecting to virtual Disk Service at the bottom.. But when I unplug it then it opens and shows me my C drive. I cannot also use chdisk because when I am in cmd and i type T: to change to that hard drive, it will hang (nothing happens).

If you guys are on the shitter just like me (harddrive does not even show up on Disk Management on another computer) you might still be able to save the data by opening/break gently the harddisk case and insert it into a harddisk USB docking station. It might just be that the harddisk controller has been fried, but that the disk itself is fine.

hi! I just wanna ask whether you had files in that drive and did you lose anything inside it?

@@ivan_valerian If you have previously used it on another device, it will ask you to format the storage, and if you have anything inside the storage, you need to back it up before you format it because you'll lose everything inside of it.

Thank you for the detailed explanation to pursue issues in 1 of my HDDs and resolution. I have another HDD which is a decade old, suddenly, it was appearing offline in disk management and now not even detectable in detectable, would need your help if data can be recovered using recoverit software and by which version. Positively anticipating your prompt response at the earliest

I'm not sure about the 1st option you provide. Approx. 2:5ish in the video, at the New Simple Volume Wizard part where is asking to Format with NTFS/DEFAULT/NEW VOLUME... Either perform a quick format (blah blah blah). Well I lose any data if I select this?
