    Are there jumper settings on the hard drive?

    Some have jumper for speed setting, master / slave etc. which you might have to change for it to be seen as a slave drive in a caddy

    Go to administrative tools/computer management and see if you can see it in there, you might have to delete the volume and then create it again then format it
