I took my laptops 2.5" hard drive out to use as an external drive, and when plugged in to my USB to SATA adapter, my laptop doesn't see it. The hard drive is on though as I can hear it. Any suggestions?

Is it formatted? Try to see if it's in Windows disk management.

I edit my posts a lot.

Does BIOS show your USB-to-SATA adapter? If yes, does it recognize your drive, if it is going to be attached directry to MoBo SATA?

Purify your Windows 10/11, don't give Microsoft anything that you don't want to share.
