Some of those can be tough to hear. Try another port. If you're using front panel ports, try the back.
Check in Disk Management. Even if it isn't mounted, is the file system recognized?
I have run into a couple DOA IDE/USB adapters. They would register as present but not bring up a drive. Also, some can't handle large partitions though large is usually way beyond 500MB. Do you have other drives you can test it with?
