Iomega 318686 external HD

Hello,
I have an external HD Iomega 318686 model LPHD-UPC.
This drive I used without any problems. Then I decided to use it for my backup of my laptop via Windows 10.
First I did a complete format of the drive. When I connect this HD to my laptop, it is no longer recognized by my laptop. I tried to find a driver to download, but can not find the driver. Also I do not know if this is the solution. Also I don't know the difference between driver and pilot.
Is there someone who can help me to make this external HD Iomega 318686 model LPHD-UPC work again?
Thank you.
Wouter

The very first thing to do is to plug it into another [working] system to see if the problem is with your laptop OR the drive.
Next that is a pretty old external drive and yes, they do fail [which may well be the problem]

A lot of those use a double usb plug for pw. You are using both usb connectors, correct?
