SSHD USB 3.0 Not Recognised in Disk Drive

So I have an external SSHD from Seagate (my buddy had it lying around and didn't use it). I used it on Windows 7 just fine, upgraded about a month ago to Win 10 and it worked fine too. Now suddenly it isn't recognised anymore, not even in disk drive. The SSHD is working, it vibrates and when i plug it into the USB 3.0 port, it is for a short time recognised as memory and then the 'windows doesn't recognise this USB' message pops up. 

 

Suggestions?

go to the advanced dive control in the settings and give it a name there so windows can identify it my father had this problem with an external ssd fixed it that way

If Windows 10 is giving you the "⚠️ USB Device Not Recognized" popup it means there's an issue with the communication lines. If it's doing it on multiple different USB ports on your PC, it usually stems from a damaged cable or USB port on the device.

So I bought a new cable and now the USB Device Not Recognised is gone, it shows up in device manager, but still not in disk manager. Other tips?
