It is also a Good Thing(tm) to test a restore now and then. Yesterday I
needed to recover something, just when the hardware of the backup
machine decided to eat the needed part of an archive.
Anyway, you might want to try to get the drive running again with a
swift turn around the vertical axle of the drive the moment it should
spin up. It could be that it is just a bit stuck due to accumulated
dust.
Another thing you could try after this, is putting the disk in a closed
plastic bag in the fridge (the one that doesn't go below zero C.) for a
night.
