New 5TB My Passport for Mac Mini M2 not mounting

I have tried Disk Utility mounting (it is marked as unmounted), changing the port on the Mac, used First Aid and made sure the external drive box is ticked on Settings.

The drive is identified correctly but greyed out. Disc IS spinning.

What do I do next?? (please)
