That is a common symptom when a drive begins failing. Is it old enough, or
has it seen enough wear & tear for this to be likely? Has it always been
like this? Or did it start at some point?

How long is quite a while? 10 seconds? 2 minutes?

If it were mine, I would try to swap out the drive and the enclosure to see
which one the problem follows. I realize that is not terribly convenient
for most home users, but that is the sort of thing we have Clinics for :)
