I've had a 500GB Samsung M2 for a few years, and about a month ago it started giving me issues. When I'm in Windows, i'll randomly lose access to the drive (as if it's ejected) and the blue LED which always stays on, turns off (the drive still feels like its on/working though as you can feel the vibrations). If I try to shutdown the regular way, it hangs... when I hard reset, it hangs at POST too, until I unplug the drive. It has happened so far around 3 times in the past month.
I ran chkdsk yesterday, which came up with no problems, and I've just finished doing an error scan with HDTune, which came back clean too

Any ideas?
