Ensure that your desktop computer has the correct type of connector for the hard drive. The Seagate IronWolf Pro NAS hard drive likely uses a SATA interface, so make sure that your desktop computer has SATA ports available.
Make sure that the hard drive is properly connected and powered. Check that all cables are securely connected to the hard drive and motherboard or SATA controller card, and that the power supply has enough power to support the hard drive.
Initialize and format the hard drive. If the hard drive is not recognized by your desktop computer, you may need to initialize it using a disk management utility in your operating system, such as Disk Management in Windows or Disk Utility in macOS. Once initialized, you can format the hard drive to your desired file system, such as NTFS or exFAT.
