I have a HDD that I am messing about with Linux Mint. and it is in a caddy connected to my lapotp via USB cable....
when I go to "my computer"... the hdd does not show as an additional drive... yet the drive is in use, the light is flashing and the disc is revolving... I know it is there, cos I have just been working on it,.... so is Windows so high and mighty it does not recognize Linux ?

There are drivers you can install though, if I recall.

At any given moment in the universe many things happen. Coincidence is a matter of how close these events are in space, time and relationship.
Opinions expressed in forum posts are those of the poster, others may have different views.

shutter: presumably it appears as a bootable drive in the BIOS list, as you are "messing about with Linux Mint"?
Using a TP-Link Archer VR600 modem-router.

Haven`t looked in the bios listing....
Except to make the order of boot ups - anything before the HDD !
It is not critical... just "weird" or as HB puts it "spooky"... and I wondered if any of the experts could answer the question ! .

Windows doesn't assign a drive letter to a filesystem (Linux ext4) it can't read. So a drive with the contents of a Linux installation won't appear in "My Computer".
Run diskmgmt.msc (or right click My Computer, choose Manage, then open Disk Management).

just because some part of windows system does see it, does not make it usable, and therefore my original description and question is not oblique. unlike some of the answers...
