If reseating the connectors in the back of the drive doesn't cure the
issue, I'd say the drive is going bad, and should be replaced.

So your saying unplug it than plug it back in?

Yep, or as some say "Plug it out and plug it in". In case the
connections have partial connection and the movement is is causing the
connection to be made.

I'll try it and let ya know by the way with the computer on or off?
I know dumb ?

Off! Remove the AC power cord, remove PC cover, unplug and then reattach
the power and the data cable. Be careful not to remove or dislodge any
other cables or components. put the cover back on and plug in AC and
start it up again.
