Windows 10 won't recognize Toshiba External Hard Drive. Please Help!

2) New Windows 10 Laptop doesn't recognize the HD (in ANY way)


- Does not "ka-dunk" when attached

- Not seen in Device Manager

- Not seen in Disk Manager


3) ALL USB ports on Dell Laptop will power the drive and it lights up.


4) Can't find Windows 10 driver for Toshiba "HDTB103XK3AA" on Toshiba Website


5) Can't find Windows 10 driver for Toshiba "HDTB103XK3AA" on Microsoft Website


6) Can't find Windows 10 driver for Toshiba "HDTB103XK3AA" on DELL Website

7) Did find this P/N on a Driver update utility website which claimed to offer it for download, but just got a generic driver updater utility (with monthly fee) :(

Questions:


1) Is there a windows 10 driver for it?


2) If not is there some way to emulate an XP connection on the new w10 machine?


3) Is there some way to connect the old XP machine directly to the new W10 machine and "daisy-chain" the data from the HD through the old machine to the new machine?


4) Grateful for any other suggestions
