When I plug in my external harddrive, this pops up and won't open. Please help! Thank you.

The USB circuitry in the drive has probably failed. That happens. Or the power supply has failed.
External drives suck. Might be able to remove the hard drive and put it in another hard drive case.

External cases are cheap, moving the innards isn't a difficult task
