Hi, guys need your thoughtful help on this one. Purchased a 2.5" laptop off eBay. Has arrived and I wanted to use it as an external harddrive.
I already own a usb caddy for the drive which I have used on numerous occasions with the hard drive currently in my lappy. So I know the caddy is not the problem.
Now on plugging the new hdd into the caddy n then into my usb drive, my computer recognised the device and installed it fine, without any error messages.
Now my problem is that it is not showing up in My Computer as removable storage. Though the hdd is showing in Device Manager under Disk Drives as Toshiba MK6022GAX USB Device
Any ideas on what I need to do?
