Hey there, Sushanth_2.

Backup your data, just as a precaution. After that go ahead and download the HDD manufacturer's diagnostic tool so that you can test it for errors and bad sectors. Once you've done that, if everything seems to be OK, I'd recommend that you give it a try with a different SATA port and cables, to see if the problem still persists.
You should also run a memory test, to see if your RAM has any faults.

Hope that helps. Please let me know how it goes.
