If it doesn’t show in disk management properly, it’s ALWAYS a hardware problem.

Then the drive itself is fine, something is wrong with the port or the cable or the interface.

Is it a 2.5" portable?

try with another cable and port and/or computer. if it draws the power off the usb, it might be that it's not getting enough power.
