For a few weeks now, I've been having trouble with my G drive (a 320GB seagate SATAII drive). I'd boot the comp up, and everything is fine. But after a while everything will freeze, and when it unfreezes, drive G is gone. Completely gone. It won't show up under my computer, nor will it show up in computer management. It won't even show up in the bios. Restarting will sometimes help, but not always, and I'm stuck with one less drive.
I've checked the data cables, and they're fine. I've also checked the power cables, and felt the drive spin up, so it's not a power issue. I was also told to disable "write caching on the disk", but that didn't help.
So what i want to know is: why is my drive disappearing, and what can I do to fix it?
