1. Try the drive on another computer. 2. Take the drive out of the enclosure and install it in your pc as a slave. I had this problem once, and it was a enclosure problem. The drive was fine,.Your external may have a power supply problem.

You should be able to copy (not cut) the files off the external to your hard drive. Create a new folder on your hard drive & copy over the external's files.
