This sounds like a drive that totally needs to be wiped and reformatted. If the manufacture could not find a problem with the drive (and ill assume they did a read/write test and diagnostic) then I would dump your files off of the drive and totally re-format it as a Mac drive . But if this does not work – if possible return the drive.
My problem in this thread was different and I had no “read” problems just a “write” permission problem. -
It does sound like a corruption problem. One thing to be careful about with any drive is a hard ejection off of the computer. You know – when you get that red letter warning when you have accidentally turned a drive off. I almost always run “Disc Warrior” on that drive afterwards.

This sounds like a different problem. I was always able to “read” the files but not always able to write to the drive.
Verify drive fixed the problem and I have only occasionally had the “write” problem come back. I have had no problem otherwise with my drives and have been editing with them for awhile.
Sometimes you do get a bad drive – although the GTechs have been rock solid for the most part.
