Head to the Compatibility tab in properties and make sure "run this program as an administrator" is ticked. Click Apply and run Steam again. Check if the Steam disk write error fixed.

2. Remove Write Protection
Run Command Prompt as Administrator.

Type these commands one by one and press Enter key after each:

diskpart
list disk
select disk # (# is the number of the hard drive with which you're getting disk error)
attributes disk clear readonly
3.Check Hard Drive for Errors
MiniTool Partition Wizard Free is a good recommendation. Its "Check File System" and "Surface Test" feature can lead you through the disk check process easily and quickly.

4.Reinstall Steam
5. Investigate Firewalls
Certain firewalls may prevent Steam from talking to its servers. You can temporarily disable it for testing purposes. If that’s the reason, it may be necessary to add exceptions in your firewalls for Steam.
6.Check RAM for Errors
Memory errors can cause issues with the Steam installation process, as well as gameplay. You'll want to work with a tech support specialist to investigate possible issues with your system memory.
