probably the SATA port on the mainboard is damaged. in case there are free other ports, connect the SATA drive to another one.
(p.s. this happened to me due to settings in power management to stop the drive when unused).
it could also be you haven't enabled the write disk cache on the SATA drive. to enable the write cache do the following
- go to my computer, right click the SATA drive and click on properties
- click on Tab "Hardware" and select again the SATA drive, then click on properties
- in the new window select the Tab "Drive properties" and check the box "activate write cache", click on Ok.

Probably faster RPM, but that may vary by drive.
