Hi there and welcome to the WD community.

Try to connect the drive with a different USB drive and see if this way the drive mounts, also in case the drive has a power supply try to connect it directly to the wall outlet for power.

@ArMak Thank you. I’ve tried different USB hubs, different USB cables directly to computer, and different MacBooks. The ‘Elements’ connects, but won’t mount. The ‘Elements’ plugs directly into the computer - there is no power supply. The Macbook Pro is using the power adapter.
