Assuming the drive is formatted as NTFS, check the Properties > Security tab for the folder. You may find that there are security permissions that prevent you from seeing contents. But since the drive is connected to your computer, and you likely have admin rights, you can take ownership of the files and adjust the permissions to actually see what is inside.
Be careful, since the files may be malware, and are hidden to keep you from knowing your computer is infected.
