Default What's causing an eSATA external storage drive to disappear from thedrives list?

Okay, Windows 10 AU, I'm trying to transfer some stuff off of internal
drives to an external drive through an eSATA connection. The external
drive is in pretty good health, SMART only finds one bad sector on it,
but as I try to copy stuff onto it, it just seems to drop out of the
drive list. I have to turn it off and on again to see it again!
