I’ve tried connected it to my macbook and launched the toolbox from Seagate and it doesn’t show up in disk utility either but the system information recognizes it.

I have tried almost every troubleshooting tool and nothing has worked.

You can’t connect an Xbox game drive to a computer.

If the drive is dying then it isn’t that big of a deal. All your games and game saves are in the cloud. You will just have to redownload to a new drive.

Thats the thing I bought the drive with the games on it

that's not how it works

game licenses are connected to your account, not to a hard drive
