I have a 1 TB Seagate HD103SJ. I purchased it about 5 years ago to backup files. I backed up once, but never backed up again. About 5 times I used the drive to transfer something large from a laptop to a desktop, because network transfer is so slow.
I purchased a 2 TB drive as a data drive for a new PC, but that drive was DOA. So while waiting for a new one, I decided to use the 1TB. I loaded a few games on it to see if I liked the games. But it started having trouble loading the games, Then it started having trouble accessing certain files. I installed the game I've been playing on the SSD and tried to delete it from the HDD. But there was an I/O error.
I took the 1TB out of the computer to connect it to an external USB connector: it has the power and SATA connector, it plugs in, and it is then connected via USB. With this connection, the same files I couldn't reach when the HDD was connected internally were reachable. They deleted without a problem, and there were no I/O errors.
What is going on?
