You may wish to try all of the USB ports available, also. One may work for it!

I tried it on several ports and a couple of different computers.

Thousands of flights have been cancelled. Will "Airplane Mode" still work?

I just bought a Seagate external drive which didn't do anything. Go to Seagate website - support - products - external portable -one touch Hdd (or whatever yours is) - downloads - Toolkit support - downloads - download Seagate Toolkit for Windows. Worked for me!
