WD External Drive Is Deleting My Files

hey guys, i have a WD external drive, bought it last july. i use it for storage (mostly music and movies) it worked fine about lets say, a month? when i noticed some folders from my music files were gone. i thought they got deleted by mistake or something. the thing is, it's been doing it a lot since then. example : last night i had 1015 music folders, and today i have 972. i ran scandisk and my antivirus on it and nothing.

help me guys :(
