My Hitachi XL500 external hard drive is not showing anywhere on my computer. I also do not believe any power is getting through to my hard drive. Please help
buried in endless spam are you.
does it fail on 2nd PC????????????????????????????
but yes, I am the MVP of external HDD< I build my own.
Have over 5 here for Backups .
lots of causes, for sure bad drive, or missing drivers..
bad HW hardware or BAD software SW.
Missing 12vdc 2amp power pack>, lost or using wrong one.
when pack above does the HDD spin? usb connected to PC.
NO PC stated, NO OS stated, windows/chrome/Linux/android?
its at lease 10 years old , see posts back that far.
not good old HDD,this old.
sold during W7 era. 2009.
The drive has 3.5" HDD that needs lots of power (Amps)
to start up that big motor inside, and is first thing to learn .
2amps it needs, ok? so if pack is missing it will never startup
on any USB port, not rated for 20x standard USB load factors.
some laptops only do 0.1amps (100mA) and are useless to startup any hdd motor of any kind.
see why here.
and see a better extremal solution cheap.! $10

My Hitachi 250GB external hard
Check the device manager when it is connected and look for indications that something is wrong with the device also check the event viewer log in the system folder for any errors related to the issue and let us know.

Al querer instalar wxp-sp2 me aparece el mensaje
Creo que ese laptop no supporta SATA para XP, y se puede tratar hacer lo con un cambio en BIOS.
Prende el laptop, y empuja "F2" inmediatamente cuando aparece el Dell logo. En el setup menu en BIOS empuja "SATA native mode" para tenerlo apagado.
Inserta el Windows XP CD en el CD ROM drive, y apagar y apagar el lapto.

you have to backup the mbr before edit. also try use command Fdisk /mbr command to repair mbr.
also pls try to use bootable recovery disk like hiran boot disk, you can use hbcd menu and disk tools and choose disk genius or data recovery

Hitachi LifeStudio 250GB Drive with Windows 7 Pro
In Windows 7 Pro: Before starting, make sure you are connected to the internet as Windows 7 might have to find the driver(s) online. Plug in to a USB 2.0 or 1.0 port (3.0 won't work) and let Windows find the drivers. Two autoplay windows will pop up. Close the larger autoplay window with the heading LIFESTUDIO. In the other smaller autoplay window, click on Start LifeStudio Now. A window will open up, click on Install LifeStudio. Follow the directions. You are ready.
