Glad to hear. I had something similar happening on my drive but it was
because the connector on the SATA cable was slightly cracked and not
making a snug connection. After trying everything software-wise I could
think of, I switched out the cable on a whim and I found that crack and
it worked afterwards :)
Good luck and I hope that fixed it.
