Windows 10: Restore Removed Device??

I have this hard drive I plug into my windows 10 to use as portable storage but it automatically opens when plugged in and it lags my pc terribly so I wanted to try and stop it so I tried removing the device to see if it'd go back to asking what to do with the device instead of immediately opening it but now I can't get the hard drive to show up and it's driving me crazy I don't know where to go for help or how to fix it but the device won't show up anymore and I can't browse its files I might have deleted it or something but how can I fix it??

Restoring Windows 10 Image using Macrium Reflect


In addition to the above. Here's my suggestion in step by step.
I assume you have Macrium Installed in your current HD and already made a backup copy.

1. Connect your new HD via USB port and boot up.
2. Run Macrium, click on Restore tab then select the Backup Image that you made to restore
3. click on "select a different target disk" then select your new HD as destination
   
   
   
4. Proceed to restore then Shutdown and disconnect the old HD and replace with the new HD
5. Boot up with your new HD.
