technical reasons:<\/p><p class=\"otl-paragraph\"><strong>1. USB Connection or Power Issues<\/strong><\/p><p class=\"otl-paragraph\">Faulty USB cables, damaged ports, or insufficient power supply can prevent the drive from initializing properly. This is especially common with older USB hubs or front-panel ports.<\/p><p class=\"otl-paragraph\"><strong>2. Driver or Firmware Problems<\/strong><\/p><p class=\"otl-paragraph\">Outdated or corrupted USB or disk drivers may stop Windows from recognizing the device.
