If the USB disk also has an eSATA port, use that one and test again. If 
it doesn't have an eSATA port then I always open the enclosure, take out 
the disk, hook it up to a SATA port on a PC and test again. If a USB 
disk has strange issues then these steps have always helped me figuring 
out if the disk was failing.

HTH,
