Hi there,

Could be give me some more details about the drive and the kit? Is the drive visible in Disk Management? If it is, does it have a letter? Is the drive spinning when you connect it to your laptop? I would advise you to check the drive on another PC and with another USB cable.

Let me know if you have any progress.
