Re: Keep Losing a HD Drive

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Means the drive was disconnected, not dismounted by Windows.
Could either be the drive itself or the controller serving it. I would
go to Seagate's website and run SeaTools. You can either get a
bootable Image to create a CD or run their simpler on-line tests.

If the drive is indicted as bad/going bad - backup your data as
soon as possible. Since Seagate offers a 5-Year warranty you may
be able to get an RMA to exchange the drive for a replacement.

The device 'ST3400832AS'
(IDE\DiskST3400832AS_____________________________3.03____\5&2150f9d&0&0.0.0)
disappeared from the system without first being prepared for removal.

This is what I am getting. How do I fix this?

I have a WXP PRO SP2 system with two hard disks (C and D). I have programs
on both, but at odd time I keep losing my D drive, so when I go to open a
program loaded there I get a "cannot be found" error. It usually corrects
itself, but I need to know how to fix this issue. I went into Disk
Management and tried everything I could think of but no help. Can anyone
guide me on this?

TIA
