I use Seagate (STBX 500100) , and it worked on both my office PCs (Windows), but now I plug it in to my home laptop (also Windows) and it will not recognize it. Said "the driver was not found" or something like that. What to do?
 
if its working on a dextop and not in your laptop that means your laptops usb port is not able to provide enough power ...Most External USB Caddies come with 2 USB Plugs you may need to use both plugs to get enough power to run the drive properly.
