[SOLVED] External Seagate SSD not detected ?

[mcas19]

I'm having some trouble with a desktop I built (I already submitted a different thread for that) and after months of frustrating troubleshooting decided to go the extreme route and just wipe everything and start from scratch. However, I wanted to move a few things onto an external SSD I have just in case I need them later. I was able to plug it into the laptop I'm currently writing this post on and it works perfectly fine, but when I wiped it and tried plugging it into my desktop it doesn't show up in either file explorer or Disk Management. It does show up in the device manager and shows working. I did reformat the SSD prior to the move, since I previously had it set as a boot drive, but made sure it's set to NTFS file type. Any ideas what might be the issue?

You can try to use another partition tool to see if it can see the SSD.
