I have a 400 GB WD SATA drive that keeps disappearing in Windows XP after days or a few hours. The way I get it back is by shutting down and reconnecting the SATA cable. I tried taping the cable to the drive but that only lasted a few hours before it was gone again. The drive has lost connection 3 times now.
Do you think it is the drive or the cable? Is there anything I should do besides get a new SATA cable?
