I plug it in and I can hear it spinning and clicking but it won't show up on my computer. I've tried it on 2 macs: 1 desktop and one laptop, and one pc: windows 8.
Can I take it apart and tinker with it?
Is this a good question?

How are you plugging it in? Is this a 1 TB drive, please give us the model number. Also the model of the Mac you are trying to use. Did it show up with disk utilities? Is this a new unformatted drive?

It's not new, it's got data on it. It's not in an enclosure it's been removed and I'm using an external power and data device to read harddrives.
It's not showing up at all. Not sure what version of mac matters. Both use latest OS.
Any idea of where it came from or out of? please give us the model number. Also the model of the Mac you are trying to use. Did it show up with disk utilities?
it's my old hd. I'm looking for some old info. It's a Seagate Momentus 7200 100GB hd. I dont know the model of my mac. It's a desktop and a laptop. just your average run of the mil Mac's.
It doesn't show up at all. Not on my macs or my pc.
For old seagate HDD, it may work with Window XP. You can on window XP.

Walter, how do you know this drive is in an external enclosure? Your edit was premature.
