These Drives -- and the software on them -- have a tendency to fail after this long regardless of the Operating System. That is not to say that connecting the setup to Windows 10 did not have a negative impact on the drive / software -- the hardware is vintage and the software was never intended to run on this advanced OS.
You might try finding a system running an older OS - say Windows 7 - and see if you can recover / again see the data on the drive.
The words "might try" are deliberate -- this may or may not work.
Assuming you can ever again see the data on the Drive, back up the data immediately to another disk / NAS / something.
I am one of many who found out the hard way about the "sudden death" syndrome.
