Then what can be the difference between the two systems, the one on
the old drive and the newly-installed one?

Can you try the drive on another computer? Or do you have a clone of
that old system you can boot from and see if the drive appears with
that one running?
Or does this HD need some driver software to be installed?
Or, if the Network setting for the Firewire port is off, could that be
the reason?

Just guessing... I hope someone recognizes the situation.

In the worst case, you could always take the HD from its enclosure and
connect it in a different way, like USB, with that device Bruce
suggested, or internally if you have the right connection/adapter.
