My hard drive isn't working.... kinda

So a while ago i got a hard drive for school, since i chose game design to study - meaning i needed a lot of storage.

I got a 1tb WD External Hard Drive and after 4 months, it stopped working. But it kind of didn't stop working. In college, i used 7 different computers in college, a fuck ton of different USB ports, and 3 different cables (one was new) and the computer's weren't recognising my hard drive. it was getting powered as indicated from the light, but it just wasn't being recognised. The same story at home... Except, when i put it through the usb port in my keyboard it works perfectly fine. And i'm baffled.

I haven't dropped it, there's no sound that is coming out of the hard drive, the motor sounds like it's working but... just dont work in computers, just a Corsair keyboard...O.o
