Solution
if it is not loading up in multiple systems and you are 100% sure you have it plugged in correctly first restart sometimes it needs a restart to pick it up. IT may need set up in Bios but it almost always 99.99% of time does it for you.
If neither of them work drive is dead and is now a paper weight.
