External drives connected to Windows 2003 server doesn't show in my computer.

 The issue is because the server is not enabled the automount option. 
Inorder to resolvethe issue, open command promt and type the following:- 
 
C:\>diskpart
diskpart>automount          -tell us if automount is enabled
diskpart>automount enable   -enable automatic drive letter assignment
diskpart>automount scrub    -remove old automatic drive letter assignments
diskpart>exit
C:\>exit
 
Now connect the new external USB/HDD to the server and it will be showing 
in the 'My computer'.
Have a nice day.
