Was it corrupted during any particular process? Is it an older HDD? Could be that it's just reached the end of its life.

If you can connect it to your friends computer and it is recognized, you can try having that computer format it and see if that works.

The issue lies in your psu , Hard drives require extra power near the end of their life cycle , If you are already short on watts and using an old PSU , you will get this problem , Try using a different PSU if you have one
