Well, the power adapter cable arrived today but it doesn't solve
the problem. With 'scsictl sd0 start' and 'dkctl sd0 makewedges'
it works fine, so I'm moving on to finding something to address
the display problem.
Thanks for all the help so far.

Certainly a possibility. But I wouldn't have a clue on how to
fix

Sounds like that drive isn't spinning up.
The "Elements" product doesn't exactly tell what it is, some units
either come with their own power supply or require non-standard
USB power.
The device is pretty standard. One thing I forgot to mention

On my new build, I finally got my monitor/display issues resolved, so
today I turned to making my usual off-line backup. For several years
I've used an external USB-driven hard-drive for the backups, but now
