I recently bought a USB external hard drive. I plugged it
in, and my computer says the correct drivers were
installed and everything. I check all of the usb ports
and it says they're working properly. I checked the hard
drive and the computer says that it is working properly
as well. However, there is no way for me to access it.
There should be an icon in the "my computer" window under
removable storage or something like that, however there
is nothing. I have tried uninstalling the drivers and
restarting the computer and then installing them again
but I still have no way to actually access the drive, so
i cannot put anything onto it. Please help me out.
 
When I go under computer manager and try to partitiont
it, it says that there is no media and I'm not able to
partition it
 
Check with the drive manufacturer - they should have provided you with
information on how to partition and format the drive.
