In all probability, it is not the hd in the external enclosure that is going
south but the hd controller in the enclosure.

however, this is a good time to make a backup just in case. You ought to be
able to buy a new enclosure - you can get a decent one from like US$20 up -
and transplant the disk into the new enclosure.
