I would try another USB cable and another USB port.

An extremely sluggish hard drive speed is often a sign of impending failure, so back that stuff up as best you can.

Download and install SpeedFan: http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php
Then use the S.M.A.R.T. tool that comes with it to scan your HDD and perform an in-depth online analysis. What does it tell you about your HDD?

What if you try it with another cable and another USB port (as notherdude suggested)? Or with a completely different PC? Is it still slow?
