The WD forum advised that there is no way to stop the disk spinning down so quickly.
Today I tried running MBRTOOL from a RAM disk in Win98 DOS, also writing the backup and DMP files to the RAM disk, to try to speed up the running of MBRTOOL so that perhaps the USB disk didn't spin down between MBRTOOL operations. However I wasn't quick enough, and the disk still span down - I could see the delay when I ran a MBRTOOL option that required reading the disk. However MBRTOOL seemed to wait for the disk to spin up before displaying the MBR, or writing the DMP or backup files. The MBR display option (to the screen) worked the first time, but not when I tried it a second and third time, and both the DMP file and backup file contained hex 41 everywhere.
I exited MBRTOOL, and restarted it. This time I was somehow quick enough to stop the disk spinning down (although the initial display to the screen of the MBR had to wait for the disk to spin up), and everything was O.K. - the display to the screen, the backup file, and the DMP file.
All my runs to date had been using the MBRTOOL menus. Still using the RAM disk, I then decided to try running the options from the command line, i.e.
MBRTOOL /DSP /DSK:1
MBRTOOL /DMP /DSK:1
MBRTOOL /BCK /DSK:1 /FIL:xxxxxx
and they all worked O.K. I was typing the commands directly at the command prompt, i.e. not using a BAT file, so the disk span down between commands. To confirm it, I reran them from the command line, and again all was O.K.
Hence, it seems that the disk spindown does cause problems. However the FIRST command to be issued that accesses the disk (or the only command when specified at the command line) seems to work O.K.
From now on when running MBRTOOL with this disk, I'll be using the command line!

DiskPatch will not be able to fix this, nor will any other tool. The only possibility that remains is try to recover data from the disk, but even that seems unlikely. So: no repair, maybe a recovery. If there is data you need from that volume you could run a recovery tool like iRecover to see if stuff can be found, but this will only work (maybe) if the volume was fully decrypted.
If there's nothing you need from the volume you can simply re-use the space for data.

So what would you suggest me to do now..??
I've encountered an error in Partition Guru, which says that the ending of the extended partition overlapped with the C:\ partition. The screenshot of the same is attached.

Hallo,
ich habe am 20.02.2013 das Programm "iRecover" downgeloadet und die Lizenz per Visacard gekauft.
Die Freischaltung hat geklappt und ich war sehr zufrieden mit dem Programm.
Durch einen Absturz des Computers ist mir alles verloren gegangen.
Können Sie mir eine neue Lizenz zusenden ?
Mit besten Grüßen
GermanUser

In the DiskPatch log file there's no trace of the 500 GB encrypted partition other than the old partition table entry. Restoring that will bring you what you had before probably: an inaccessible encrypted volume.

I've attached the list of the partition structure which I had before.
Here, the lost partitions are #3 and #4, i.e. the unallocated space(which was my 500 gb encrypted partition), and D:\.
As mentioned before, I was somehow able to recover the D:\ partition(100 gb), but not the encrypted one.
So, what really happened was that these two partitions were disappeared after I accidently converted my disk to dynamic. Then after recovering the D:\, if I tries to create an unformatted partition from the left over free space, the recover partition also disappears again, leading me to the same situation as before..
