If it does the same thing on all the USB ports, the drive may have failed. If re=booting the system has no effect and you see no power light on the drive, that's not a good sign. Typically the PS will format the drive (Fat32 or whatever it uses) and you should be good to go. The fact that it only got part way through your transferring suggests the drive itself.
