At first I was thinking USB power supply problem since I have similar problems with plugging in a HD on the desktop which works fine, but having the thing not working when I plug it into the laptop, but since yours is actually showing up but just an unknown drive... uh... There might be some HD error on the external? Back up all the data and run a diagnosis on it.
As for feeling geeky.... see this? That's 2 laptops and a desktop all at the same time. So you're in good company. ;)
