Welcome, Kshreyansh!

This seems unfortunate. I'd suggest you try resolving the issue with your WD drive by using a different SATA cable to connect the HDD to the motherboard. Another thing you should try is plugging it in a different SATA port altogether and see if the I/O error will be appearing again.
I'd also try fixing it by resetting BIOS . If that doesn't help, go to your motherboard manufacturer's website and make sure you got the latest SATA controller & chipset drivers manually updated from there.

Let us know how it goes.
