when i copy files to my external harddisk it copy well then when i plug the harddisk the files lost but it take space(storge) from the hard disk
 
Don't unplug the external drive until it's drive activity light has stopped flashing.
For added safety, use the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon in the notification area (bottom-right) before unplugging.

Don't unplug it at all if you don't need to. I only unplug mine when my PC has shut down for the day, and that's only because the PC hangs at boot time if any external hard drives are connected.
