No, as long as there's an available drive letter somewhere, it'll just
find the next one and use that.
It's difficult to say why it's not showing up at all. It depends on
OS version, drivers and the like. You might insert it and run the
"New Hardware Wizard" and see if that catches it.
Good luck!
Thanks for asking,
