    SEAGATE Drive not showing up


    Hello,Today I wanted to install a Windows Media Folder on my SEAGATE Expansion Drive. It had 1 TB of space. After the installation, it showed up as an E: drive, even though it was D: and it had only 32 gb. Now it is not showing up anymore when I plug it in. Can you please help me? I had lots of data on there that I need.

    :)

  2. External Seagate Drive not appearing after Creators Update

    We appreciate the feedback, Pete. Getting in touch with Seagate support is one of your options. They may have recent or updated drivers for your external hard drive. In the meantime, since the hard drive is detected again when you unplug and replug it, we
    suggest that you try changing the drive letter and its path and see if it addresses the issue. Follow the steps below:

    • Right-click the Windows key and click Computer Management.
    • Under Storage, click Disk Management.
    • Find your Seagate External Hard Drive, right-click it and select
      Change Drive Letter and Paths
      .
    • Click on Change and select the letter for the drive.
    • Click OK, close all windows, then restart your computer.

    Should the issue persists, then we suggest sharing your experience with us through our Feedback Hub. To access the Feedback Hub, follow the steps below:

    • Click the Windows key.
    • Look for Feedback Hub, then click it.
    • In the left pane, click Feedback.
    Let us know should you need further help.

    Regards.

    Regards.

    Seagate external drive

    Hi Paul,

    One of the possible reasons why your Seagate external drive is not working properly is due to a corrupted storage device. To help us determine the appropriate troubleshooting steps, we would like to ask the following questions:

    • Were you able to connect this external drive to another computer?
    • Have you made any recent changes before you encountered this issue?
    • Have you tried to unplug and use another USB port available?
    • What is the error message that you received?

    We look forward to your response.

    SEAGATE Drive not showing up

    Seagate external hard drive

    Try this

    1) Open Diskmgmt.msc

    2)All disks and partitions are listed here. Some partitions done have a drive letter (Eg, System Reserved). These drives don't show up in Explorer.

    3) Noticed that the Seagate disk is there but it also did not have a drive letter

    4) Right Click on the Seagate Drive, Assign any drive letter.

    5) FIXED!!

    Not sure why the disk does not have a drive letter on Windows 10 but has a letter on every other machine

    Hope this helps.
