my external hard drive takes forever to load even if it does finally load, all my data appears to be either lost or never load. I'm using Ubuntu 20.04.2LTS, I can't seem to imagine a problem that might have caused this, although I have removed it multiple times and reconnected it to see whether it'll work normally again ......what should I do?

The disk can be damaged, or there is not enough power. It is not related to Ubuntu. – Pilot6 Jul 07 '22 at 12:00

Check disk's S.M.A.R.T. data and errors. – FedKad Jul 07 '22 at 12:07
