After several years of connecting an external hard drive to my computer, it was not displayed at first. After changing the USB slot, it is displayed in the device manager but not in Explorer or Disk Management.

Loading...Why is a USB stick locked on Mac? On a Windows PC with an SSD, I was able to save files to the SSD and copy and save them to a USB stick, but on another colleague's PC, I couldn't save files to the USB stick. Is there a problem somewhere? My colleague's laptop is…
Good day, I'm planning to build a PC for next year and wanted to ask whether an HDD as a second hard drive (just for pictures and videos) will slow down my system (e.g. boot time, loading times, etc.) and whether I should then just use SSDs. Best regards
Can I put Sims 4 or at least the expansion and save games on the SSD hard drive? If so, how? 😅 My laptop has a relatively small hard drive compared to the rather large built-in SSD. It would be great if I could store the DLCs and game saves on the SSD.
Hello, My new hard drive doesn't turn off when idle. I've set it to turn off after 2 seconds of inactivity, but it keeps running. What else can I do to make it turn off? Or is this a defect? Best regards
Hi, I'd like to download something from my browser (I use OperaX), but as soon as I start the download, it starts downloading to my C drive. However, I would like to download it to my D drive. Does anyone have any ideas how to do this? Best regards and thank you.
That’s it. That’s it. That’s normal. Doesn’t say much – except that drivers are there for the device.
No hard drives are displayed in the Explorer. That’s normal.
If the hard drive is NOT displayed in the disk management, there is indeed a problem: either the device is defective, the cable with which the device is connected, or USB port/chip of the computer.
Either the USB port of the external hard drive is defective (Windows cannot fully communicate with it), or the hard drive is not initialized/partitioned, or the hard drive itself is defective.
See if it appears there and whether it is assigned an active primary partition (if not, repeat) or a drive letter (you can also do it there).
You could also expand the hard drive from the housing and connect directly to your PC. There are usually standard HDD/SSD installed in it with standard SATA ports.
