Windows 10: My External HD no longer recognised

4tb harddrive I used to use on my Xbox. I now plug in my computer and my laptop. It does the noise to say it's recognised. And even forms up with the safely eject icon. With open device and printers and eject BUP RD
I open device and printers - it's on my devices - properties
Manufacturer - unavailable
Model BUP RD
Model no. Unavailable
Storage device.

Hardware - Seagate BUP RD SCSI disk device
Bus no. 0
Target id. 0

This device is working properly.

Volumes all blank.
Driver Microsoft
21/6/2006
Version. 10.0.17763.1

Apart from driver details everything else is greyed out
Update. Roll back. Disable and uninstall driver.

On my disk management it comes up underneath my normal HD
With a black line across it.
Disk 1 with a red X
Unknown.
3726.02gb
Not initialized.
Having a bit of knowledge of this as I've had HDs in the past not appear as I've had to allocate them a disk drive letter. But nothing like that is possible here
I can click offline or properties.
Clicking offline comes up with data error cyclic redundancy check.

External HD Connection Problem

I have attached an external HD to my computer running Windows 10 and it will not show up in my drive list. The properties shows it as Seagate.ink - what is an ink file and any suggestions as to how I can get it to work?

 

External hard drive not recognised

Worked out what the problem was with my external drive notbeing recognised. I looked under Device Manager > USB Controllers and there itwas listed with an exclamation mark with the error saying that "the driverfor this device is in memory" or words to that effect. I right clicked thecorresponding Mass Storage device and uninstalled it and then unplugged theexternal drive. I rebooted my desktop and plugged the external drive in againand it reinstalled its driver again and I am now able to use the external driveagain.
