I just got an Ipod Classic and when i try to sync it it syncs half then deletes it all and disconnects

Whenever i plug my Ipod Classic (new) into my computer it says Sync in progress, then switches to "OK to disconnect" after loading about 40 songs on, and then deleting them off the Ipod.  What's going on?  All the computer says is "cannot load songs, unknown error occured."

To help in troubleshooting,
What is your iTunes version?
What is your iPod firmware number, as shown on the Itunes summary page?
You problem is iTunes timeout the sync process because there is no response from the iPod. Possible causes
iPod Hardisk malfunctioning.
Antivirus scanning
Other USB devices, using up the USB resource
iPod connected to USB 1.1 port instead of High Power USB2.0 Port
IPod connected to USB Hub.
Windows plugins or Malware using up CPU resource.
Whenever you sync or Restore the IPod, connect the iPod to the Back panel USB 2.0 port, disconnect all other USB devices except the mouse, and disconnect from Internet, stop your antivirus.
But if the above doesn't work, bring it back to Apple , since it is under warranty.
You can also do a Disk Diagnostic as posted regularly by tt2, to check your Hardisk, it wont fix the problem but help you decide what to do.
