Connect it to a different computer, to see if the device is working at all.

If not, and if the Mad Dog is still under warranty, then exercise the warranty to get it repaired/replaced.

Otherwise, disassemble the casing, remove the disk-drive,
and connect the disk-drive as a "slave" disk-drive in a desktop computer, to see if the disk-drive is OK. This would imply that the USB-to-disk-drive interface inside the casing is the problem.

Sometimes the drives pull too much current to start. I understand that it worked in the other caes, but the electronics in this case may be pulling more.

Usually they come with a two-headed USB connector. Try putting the single end in the drive and use two USB ports on the other end. This doubles the current available to the drive.

Go to Computer Management in Admin Tools of Control Panel and see if drive J is visible to this tool. Also you will have to install its drivers if there are any before you can use one.

Make sure that your HD was installed properly in enclosure. Remove the cable then atached again.

It is broken. Either replace it, or purchase an external CD/DVD reader/writer, with a USB interface.

The model number will be on a tag on the driver. You can also see it under storage devices in menu once installed..
