External driver is giving issues on my PC but works perfectly fine on laptop.

I have two external drives I use, one SSD and one HDD. My SSD became corrupted, so I tried some fixes on it that did not work, but this may be affecting my HDD now. When I plug my HDD in, it is recognized in device manager, but it cannot be accessed directly. Disk management says "unknown" and "unallocated".

Upon trying on my laptop, it worked totally fine. Checked on it using cystaldisk, said the health of it is good. I am assuming this is a PC issue then, and wondering any steps I can do to solve this. Thank you!
