Hi,
It would be great if you could elaborate your question; the information seems incomplete. Is your drive not visible in file explorer?

Hi, I guess your problem is your Toshiba External Hard Drive Light Blinking But Not Working.
Here are the fixes :
Fix 1. Check Power Management for USB Hub
Click Start, type: devmgmt.msc, and hit Enter.
Open Device Manager and expand "Universal Serial Bus controllers".
Right-click on the USB Root Hub, click on "Properties".
Go to Power Management and uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".
Fix 2. Reboot PC into Safe Mode
In order to thoroughly check out and find the exact problem, you can try to reboot the PC into Safe Mode to see where Toshiba external hard drive can work or not:
Go to Settings, click on "Update & security".
Tab on "Recovery", select "Advanced Startup" and click "Restart now".
PC will automatically boot into another Startup Settings screen, press F4 to initiate PC reboot into Safe Mode.
Then check whether the Toshiba external hard disk can be detected or not.
