My USB Time Machine disk (1TB USB3 Seagate) suddenly disconnected, and I'm
getting this message with Disk Utility/ First Aid: 

Unable to unmount volume for repair. : (-69673)

The drive isn't showing any error when I check it using the Seagate Windows
utility, but it did behave oddly when I first plugged it in - the Window PC
froze for about 30 seconds, and then went on to behave. 

Maybe it's just a Mac thing, but I'd better copy the files to another drive,
just in case.

How do I back up the TM backup? The disk is readable and showing a bunch of
weekly folders. Is it just a case of copying the data to a new drive,
formatted MAC OS extended, journaled, case sensitive?

Cheers, Rob
