Things you can try:
1. Format the partition(s) on the drive (you'll lose all the data, of course).
2. Get the drive out of the enclosure and put in a new enclosure.
3. Try another cable on another USB-port.
If none of the 3 help, buy another drive.

hi,
i have a 500GB seagate external hard drive with 4 partitions managed by seagate manager.the problem is it works ok sometimes,but all of a sudden it says 'delayed write error'.if i disconnect the drive and reconnect it after a system restart it works ok again for a while,but again after a while the same error comes up.
is there any permanent fix for this problem?or is there something wrong with the drive?
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
