Error 0x80070571 External Hard Drive

So I got this problem with my Toshiba 1TB External Hard Drive when I tried to copy files to it(or create folders,text,etc), something about writing new files on the drive is making the error, though copying files from it is fine.


 I've scoured the interwebs for the answer for this error, and I've found the simple solution for it.

 Step 1:

 Connect your external drive to your computer/laptop.

 Step 2:

 open Command Prompt (Window key + R) for older versions, (Window key) + type 'cmd' for Win7 up and press enter.

 Step 3:

 type 'chkdsk /f F:' given that F: is the drive letter of your external drive

 Step 4:

 Wait for it to finish the check disk command, and VOILA! it works properly again! Cheers!
