I have a computer that suffered a hardware failure. I replaced it with a

try to recover some data from it. I have an external drive adapter that
plugs into a USB port.
Previously, (assuming I remember correctly) I simply hooked up the drive to
the adapter and plugged it into the USB port and it showed up as sdb and I
was able to transfer data as needed.
This time, nothing shows up. So, either I cannot remember how it shows up
or I am doing something wrong (both likely). I tried a couple of other
drives that I had previously hooked up with similar results.
I have tried parted -l, fdisk -l, lsblk -a, and looked at /dev with no good
results.
I would first confirm that the USB adapter is showing up. See whether
it is present in the output of the lsusb command.
