I try to describe the problem the best I can.
I've a 2TB disk initially formatted as a RAID 0 with another HD (that is lost) on another machine not mine.
I attached it on an external USB box and I've tried to re-format it with Ubuntu (18.04.5).
Sadly it was not auto-mounted, so I've tried some command-line options.
I can see the USB device (the HD external box):
lsusb:

but fdisk -l
and lsblk
shows only the /dev/sda Ubuntu disk:

How can I do for mounting and re-formatting the HD?
Thanks a lot in advance for your help!
