  • This is not normal and must mean a hardware fault that is happening only on this computer with its hardware. To isolate it, you would need to try other USB cable or enclosure. You have already tried with another disk, which is useful. Please add to your post the details of all these hardware items.

  • But the same usb enclosure is working for linux setup so it must be alright. Also I inserted win10 hdd into the machine on which i was running linux, so if there were any hardware fault it would have also caused when i used linux setup.

  • Some hardware items may be incompatible to some degree and usually there's no good explanation. The enclosure is USB3, but is the port USB 3 or USB2? If the laptop has both ports, try them both. What is the laptop model?
