The Western Digital Green 2TB keeps disconnecting and disappearing sometimes it comes back and sometimes it doesn't. I changed the sata Cable, port and power cable an it still happens. I'm running Windows 8.1... When it disappears I can Hear my drive make a screeching-like sound.

I switched the power options to default in windows 8.1 Control panel and since then I have not experienced any disappearance and also Lifeguard Shows that My HDD health is good. Thanks for the reply :)
