Can't open my backup external Maxtor HD.....

Hi
I did a back-up on my MAXTOR HD (NTFS/FAT32).
A few weeks ago, I tried to open the HD to pick some data from it, and I couldn't get access to it. When I double click on it, it says "the file or directory is corrupted and unreadable".
I must mention that I'm always using the "safely remove hardware" option.

Help !!

Hi
It wasn't really "Back-up"..... Just kept copy of files, photos etc.
It worked well for few months.
