This type of issues arise when your HDD isn't getting enough power from Sata port... It is a problem of Sata Power Cable.. and can be fixed by simply Cleaning Sata Power port.. or changing Sata Data Cable...

If you face that issue even after replacing cable... It means there is problem in your HDD
