I tried to update my drivers and everything suggested on the website of the manufacturer of the hard disk

Hello

Check if the drive is detected in disk management. If it is detected, and then assign it a drive letter and check if this solves the problem.

NOTE: first back up all the data on the external hard drive.

To open disk management, follow these steps:
a. click on the ORB start.
b. Type diskmgmt.msc and press ENTER.
Check if you can see the drive.

Refer to this article for more information on how to assign a drive letter to a drive.
