Hey there, SaidCross.

What have you tried so far? Was it "chkdsk" and what were the results?
I'd recommend that you backup all of your important data right away, just to be on the safe side. After that I'd suggest that you try the drive with a different computer and a different USB cable (preferably shorter than 12"), to see if you still have the same problem. Other than that, go ahead and download the HDD manufacturer's diagnostic tool and test the drive for errors and bad sectors, to see if anything out of the ordinary pops-up.

Please let me know how it goes.
