I would check wiring and power, especially if the two drives are on the same wiring rail or adapters/multiple adapters are used. This comes to mind 1st.

I will second what BlackST said

Try an different power cable connection, I would even swap out the sata cable too.

If none of this works get all the data off that drive you can and RMA it back to WD.
