Try a different external drive and compare you results.
If the drive is failing replace it...
you can try salvaging the drive with issues:
Erase and reformat a storage device in Disk Utility on Mac
Erase and reformat a storage device in Disk Utility on Mac - Apple Support
All drives will fail in due time—
