Probably bad sectors, or FW “lockout” caused by same.
IF THE DATA IS NOT IMPORTANT AND YOU ARE PREPARED TO RISK IT...
Search this forum for details on non-windows cloning software, such as hddsuperclone or ddrescue.
If the HDD is not recognised by this software, or does but does not clone or does so very slowly, then STOP.
IF THE DATA IS IMPORTANT THEN REFER TO A DATA RECOVERY SPECIALIST.
