Importing Pool stuck on fetching

Before swapping out my old set of HDDs, I used Scale's built-in Replication Task to replicate the contents of the old HDD onto an external HDD.

Now I've put in the new set of HDDs, and I'm trying to import the pool from the external HDD, but it's stuck at 0% and clicking on the task just reads Fetching Data.

I think creating a new pool with it will erase the HDD, so I want to avoid that, but when I plugged it into my Windows desktop, it doesn't appear either.

What are possible solutions to this so I can safely get the contents of the external back? It's mostly just shows and movies, so the method of retrieval doesn't matter too much as long as I can get it accessible again.

I wouldn't think that Windows would automatically see that data correctly. Have you tried connecting it to a Linux machine? Maybe use an Ubuntu live USB on the Windows desktop.
