WD3200 AAJB in SABRENT External enclosure

I am running a XP and can find a mass storage( has been installed and unistalled )  noted in my USB properties but no specified type . location O etc. My computer doesn’t show the drive… Any thoughts?

If the drive is spinning, it may be required to partition and format. if not try using supplied Y cable on 2 USB ports for additional bus power requirements.

Hit Windows key +R and then type diskmgmt.msc on RUN dialogue box.  In disk management you’ll find your drive as un-initialized drive.  Follow the instructions here…
