Hi all.
I have this issue:
my macbook pro 15 retina mid 2014 OS el captain started to have problem a few week ago. The hdd s being expelled after a minute or two.
-HDD contents are visible by Finder application.
-copy starts but ends a few minutes later when hdd gets expelled (error code:36)
-the things get worse if plugged to another USB port: it doesn't even appear on desktop as a device , I get only the expulsion popup.
-the HDD has power and it spins.
-blue led is flashing as if it was working.

Does somebody have suggestion?

Sounds like mechanically damaged and further quickly getting worse building up errors in bad sectors from each subsequent power on.

Consult with a specialist if data is worth something.
