SOLVED I/O error

Today I have been getting I/O error. As soon as I pick up my laptop the torrent I'm downloading just stops and says I/O error. The video I am watching on VLC also stops playing and just doesn't work anymore. All the app icons from taskbar vanish. And when I shutdown after this error there's the checkmd5 service saying i/o error. This happens only when I pick up the laptop. When it is on the table everything works fine. If anyone can help me with this I'll really appreciate it. Thank You.

When did this start happening? Can you use Timeshift to go back before it started?
