i had tried on my friends laptop and it seems to work fine. but when I plug it to my laptop I cant see anything.
First I thought my drivers were missing but when I use a pen drive its working absolutely fine.
Only thing is that when I connect my hard drive it says "device ready to use"But at the end its not showing me anything.
thank you,

Hi Claude,
Could you tell me the model of the drive? Right now the drive not listed in My Computer? Search for it in Disk Management. Check if it has a drive letter. If it does not have, try to assign one. Do you have valuable data on the drive? If you do not have, try to format/initialize the drive. The device should be installed and visible in Disk Management. You may try to uninstall it, restart the PC and plug the device back in.
Hope this helps
