The most common cause of this in my experience is not enough amperage available at the USB port. If you're using a front/top case port, try switching to one of the ones at the back of the case that is connected directly to the motherboard. If that doesn't work, you can use an externally powered USB hub, which usually solves the problem as long as the hub has a 2A or better power supply.
Pl check for the serviceability and also whether the front ports are enabled or not from the device manager option using right click manage option on My Computer icon on desktop.If these are disabled , please enable them.

I have had a similar problems with external drives that only plug into a USB port (no ext power adapter). It is very common that the power supply fed through the USB port is inadequate to power an external hard drive. Some enclosures have a external A/C input to resolve this. Also, some computers (motherboards) only have a select number of USB ports that are powered. Since this device is detected by your other computer and not on the new one, my next attempt would be to locate a USB hub with external A/C power. There is a good chance that this will resolve the problem. By the way, when you plug in the drive does it spin up?
Hello, Did you try to use this drive on another computer? Did you have the same problem? Did you try using a different cable? I would try these things first in order to determine if the problem is with the drive or with the computer. Good Luck! Dr. Know
