This hard disk used to be my OS although i formatted another drive to be my os instead and made this hard disk as just secondary. The thing is the disk keeps Disconnecting, and reconnecting after making actions related to the specific disk (Copying, moving files, sometimes just opening a file or anything) It will disconnect immediately, and will connect again. Although there are times when it won't just reconnect, i have to restart the system in order to get computer to detect the drive.

I've been unplugging and re-plugging the SATA cables and Power cables from the Hard drives. Tried changing place with the OS drive and the secondary Still the same result.
Tried all 3 of different SATA cables from my power supply.

Here is the thing, i have a generic (Unbranded, or pretty much unknown company regarding power supplies and came with the casing) I doubt it if its faulty, not delivering enough efficient voltages
Will soon replace the power supply although i want to reassure, what if power supply gets replaced and the hard disk is still buggy, I've tried using hard disk to another computer, successfully moved files without problem

I've run SMART test, Seatools test (All of the kinds of test included in it) tried to use warranty for the hard disk although they returned it saying it was perfectly "Normal"





SPECS:
A8- 7600 CPU
GT 730 GPU
4gb ddr3 memory
a68 hm-k Mother board

Why do you doubt it's faulty?

I would always have doubts about an unbranded, generic PSU, always.

You need to replace it with a decent PSU first - - - then see if the HDD problem continues.
