Have you had a look at the SMART information for the disk? e.g.
http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/Smartmontools . If that looks ok it would
suggest that the filesystem is corrupt. If it doesn't look healthy you might
still be able use dd to clone the disk and then try to repair the filesystem
on the copy (I don't know if there are linux tools for hfsplus though).
Taking care to keep the disk cool might give you some extra time while doing
that.

Good luck,
Cillian
