I can't find my external hard drive on the computer

I am trying to get information off of my external hard drive onto another computer. The hard drive works just fine on other computers. The computer says it found the hardware and when I look up the USB information on the device manager, it says that it is working properly... however, when I look under My Computer, I can't find the drive!!! Where is it???

    In the control panel, go to Administrative tools...Computer Management...under Storage, go to Disk Management and you can enable it there.

    If the drive is assigned E: already and there is already a network drive assigned E: can I change the external drive letter without messing it up (on another computer that always sees the drive on E:)?

    Drive assignments are made by the computer, not the drive.
