Try to delete all partitions, create a new GTP partition and quick format it in NTFS.
Which firmware version is installed in the box?

Sorry, it's GPT. Here's a guide:
https://docs.microsoft.com/pt-pt/windows-server/storage/disk-management/change-an-mbr-disk-into-a-gpt-disk.

Try to do that with the box connected to the PC with a printer cable (connector in the back)

Do you hear the drive spin? Make sure the connector is fully inserted in the hard drive.

Yes the drive was spinned. Specially the Hitachi drive, there is noise during spin.

Officially only 6TB drives are supported but there are reported cases of larger hard drives installed. I think the hard drive should always be accessible to windows with the usb cable... Try another PSU if you can.
