You can try switch SATA cable, SATA power cable and SATA port first. If same, then it's dead Jim. 

This happens when I try to write to it.

This happens when i try to scan for errors

Some maps are readable, some are not

I can't replicate it, but it sometimes shows 100% utilization on the drive, showing that system is using it and when looking at what specifically is using it it shows ntoskrnl.exe

 

This is way beyond my league, any ideas on how could I fix this?

Try run an offline scan Chkdsk?

Open an elevated Terminal and run this command.

chkdsk D: /offlinescanandfix


Also download HDTune or CrystalDiskInfo to check for your HDD health.

THANK YOU! It looks like the power cable was at fault, weird. I replaced it and it works now. I did not swap the SATA cable, because i do not have another one. Maybe the SATA cable still was at fault, just twisting it in a different way made it work for now?
Also, this.

A quick scan showed that everthing was green, then i started a standard scan and this happened. I'll buy a new SATA cable.
