Do not format it. Press cancel.

In the future make sure you safely remove all removable devices, this includes USB drives and external HDD's.

To fix this, you will need to copy all the data off the external HDD to another HDD then format it.

MAKE SURE THE DATA IS SAFELY BACKED UP BEFORE FORMATTING ANYTHING.
