Hello!
Recently, the external harddrive I use as general data collector started developing a very interesting problem. At first, it would start ejecting itself for no good reason, and now, it cannot be ejected anymore once plugged in.
I have tried disc utility without much success as even verifying the disc crashes disc utility, repair does not work either. here the console file copy

I have tried logging out and back in (does not work either), and while it is plugged in, I can also not shut down my computer. Is there something I can do to remedy this without having to copy vast amounts of data across different hdds??
Thanks for your help
