I have had the same problem. Light turns on, drive spins, can see it in devices but not My Computer.

Anybody try removing the drive and turning it internal? Do you guys know if it's SATA? I've been googling like mad to no avail. If not SATA, is it doable to convert it such that it works with a normal motherboard on a PC? Thanks in advance!
