External Toshiba HD suddenly not recognizing on Macbook -- have reset SMC, PRAM and tried safe mode. Help!

Hi! My newest (2017) Toshiba hard drive is not recognizing on my 2015 Macbook Pro. It has been formatted for Mac and has previously worked for about 6 months. The HD "whirs" when plugged in and lights up, and the little "beach ball" comes up on the Mac. Then the disk image shows up for a second, but then disappears. I can't get it to mount the disk for long enough to see or use files -- it's just a few seconds. My other hard drives (including another Toshiba) are working. Any idea what could be wrong or how to fix it?

Thanks!
