I have a boot SSD and an everything else hard drive. 

When accessing a file from my desktop, which is set to be on my hard drive, I get the error below. I also get the error when accessing other files on the hard drive. i just saved and uploaded that snip and that worked fine, but the snip cannot be transferred to any other part of my hard drive. Any applications that have shortcuts from the start menu or the desktop on the drive. say they cannot run when trying to start them. Sometimes it is fixed when just restarting my PC. It seems to be pretty sporadic when ti does happen but I have tried to include things that happen when I try to access things. I have checked the sata cables and other cables that connect to my drives and those are fine. I am just at a loss right now on what to do. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Edit: I also can't upload things from my picture folder on my E: drive(hard drive) as a new propic but I could upload the snip on the post here which is fishy.

Try running check disk. 

 

Go go to command prompt And type 

 

chkdsk /f C:

I like bgibbz's response, if you're not familiar with CMD (Command Prompt), use the one graphical one which is: This PC (My Computer -> Right click on E:/ -> Properties -> Tools -> Check Disk (Error Checking or it should be something similar to that).

If this method does not detect anything try using Crystal Disk Info (If the download is slow, try changing the download server which is on the right side of the page):

I did the above and was able to get results on my restart.However I cannot upload them because I cannot access the screencaps I took. I tried to run the test again just now through Crystal Disk Mark and the test wont go through on my hard drive(Drive E:) but it will complete as normal on my boot SSD(Drive C:). I guess my hard drive was always suspect from the beginning, but this solidifies the problem? I guess I will probably format my drive after moving things from it or something, perhaps do a full system wipe just for kicks. I dunno. 

 

Oh also, when checking my hard drive in cmd I get this

 

"C:\WINDOWS\system32>chkdsk /f E:
The type of the file system is RAW.
CHKDSK is not available for RAW drives."

 

Soooo. ?????

My drive does this after a few hours which is weird. It comes back when I turn my PC off and on, and I am able to run a Crystal Disk Mark check on it, doing that as I type this, so it just feels strange. I get this from the test. 

I also ran chkdsk in my cmd and got this:

 

C:\WINDOWS\system32>chkdsk /f E:
The type of the file system is NTFS.

 

So I dunno. It's so on and off I don't even know where to start anymore. 

 

Edit: BTW my hard drive is NOT external, it is internally mounted through a SATA cable.
