The HDD does not more stop to spin and if I try to write to the disk I get something "short read error" which force me to umont the drive and then run the fsck.ext3 and it restore every time the journal.

If I try to remount the drive without fsck.ext3, it tell me that ext3 is the wrong FS and it is mounted as ext2. :-(
