My Passport HD has crashed twice, any fixes?

Hey there couldn't find a thread thought I'd start one, my WD passport is 1TB and I had originally formatted it to work on Just my MBP it crashed then I reformatted and partitioned it to have half of it work on my MBP only so I can Time Machine on it and the other half was to work on either mac or pc. The Mac partition has now crashed again and I have no where to put the time machine files because I can only back up on a mac only HD and that was the only one. I have tried "repairing" the little thing but MBP tells me it cannot be repaired and that I should transfer all my files.

I am not sure what is wrong but I would like to be able to rely on the passport to back up my computer but it seems my computer is more reliable then the backup HD. Does anyone have any more permanent solutions?

I don't take my WD digital anywhere it sits on my desk so I haven't dropped it and it doesn't make a clicking noise.

I have a 13" MBP mid 2009

has crashed on both snow leopard and lion osx

4gb ram

2.26 Intel duo core

Thank you in advanced for any insight!
