Sql-server – Same query different execution plans

I am trying to optimize performance for a server and this particular query was causing huge reads from database, in turn causing timeout for queries. This query is generated from EF6 in Asp.Net MVC.

Here is the problematic query:

exec sp_executesql N'SELECT 
[Project1].[C1] AS [C1], 
[Project1].[Date] AS [Date], 
[Project1].[AssetID] AS [AssetID], 
[Project1].[EventData] AS [EventData]
FROM ( SELECT 
    [Extent1].[AssetID] AS [AssetID], 
    [Extent1].[Date] AS [Date], 
    [Extent1].[EventData] AS [EventData], 
    1 AS [C1]
    FROM [dbo].[Alarm] AS [Extent1]
    WHERE ([Extent1].[AssetID] IN (cast(''c6e3142e-5b1f-4a91-90d2-03a504e86ece'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''4de25e8a-7401-49ae-bd6d-0861d67f0d2f'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''455e3a5f-1091-4784-9964-0a1a54eaa644'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''04b46c21-c44f-4b67-b64b-12f2764c0448'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''a350992b-8548-4bf1-bd22-131c114a5343'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''98ec1f36-cc54-45d2-a0e3-22aa1b669373'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''27abcf37-2093-43d5-ae62-2e7b10fe4692'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''c9f43598-2b9c-47b0-9230-37440e6aea54'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''c5964caa-5c73-4c0e-bb80-4c1dc7e11039'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''6ac30678-3876-43c9-b708-61ef19b5ea17'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''e69d870a-87de-4e3d-b4fc-62c962489a7b'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''a7c2f407-c605-4491-85fe-66c16fc15586'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''a38f452e-ee3a-4be7-94ad-99c1474a417f'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''b0f65616-d5d1-4af9-bffd-9c4b2b7f52e7'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''3940fed6-9c40-4db6-bdc2-9dc5ef7b49ea'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''e09f7618-c7d7-414d-b5d7-9ec22b3e9b64'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''62c91349-d33f-42ed-b16d-a63424acca4a'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''46812e72-45af-426e-9d72-aafdbcc9c4a7'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''2a1d2b2a-0471-4f57-adc5-b42a03eb5e01'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''2797d370-b237-4d2c-bede-b7af67f2b0f4'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''0c50bb44-133e-4434-b403-c172873564e9'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''dda75f7a-d366-472e-81b5-c4f3119dd715'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''cc469264-a706-49c6-961b-d6520437e796'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''ee2d7ea0-1f94-4cc3-9f64-d8d56374cae5'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''f7dc6b77-3735-479d-b420-e145d4e3d66f'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''8a7dbe93-ed1a-49f3-a3d0-e19c6dd4e4ef'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''b0524a60-f980-4b82-a799-e788a9a4d04b'' as uniqueidentifier), cast(''ceaf8a0b-f410-4f88-9062-e804b76b6e78'' as uniqueidentifier))) AND ([Extent1].[EventCode] = @p__linq__0) AND ([Extent1].[Date] >= @p__linq__1) AND ([Extent1].[Date] <= @p__linq__2) AND (([Extent1].[SiteID] = @p__linq__3) OR (([Extent1].[SiteID] IS NULL) AND (@p__linq__3 IS NULL)))
)  AS [Project1]
ORDER BY [Project1].[Date] DESC',N'@p__linq__0 int,@p__linq__1 datetime2(7),@p__linq__2 datetime2(7),@p__linq__3 uniqueidentifier',@p__linq__0=1799,@p__linq__1='2018-04-22 10:00:00',@p__linq__2='2018-04-23 10:00:00',@p__linq__3='B02A51FE-2248-E611-A64E-782BCB72ACED' 
go

So what i did i remove the parameters from query and run it as a single unit like this.

 select * from (  SELECT  1 as c1,  [Extent1].[Date] AS [Date], 
    [Extent1].[AssetID] AS [AssetID],         
    [Extent1].[EventData] AS [EventData]  
    FROM [dbo].[Alarm] AS [Extent1]
    WHERE ([Extent1].[AssetID] IN (cast('c6e3142e-5b1f-4a91-90d2-03a504e86ece' as uniqueidentifier), cast('4de25e8a-7401-49ae-bd6d-0861d67f0d2f' as uniqueidentifier), cast('455e3a5f-1091-4784-9964-0a1a54eaa644' as uniqueidentifier), cast('04b46c21-c44f-4b67-b64b-12f2764c0448' as uniqueidentifier), cast('a350992b-8548-4bf1-bd22-131c114a5343' as uniqueidentifier), cast('98ec1f36-cc54-45d2-a0e3-22aa1b669373' as uniqueidentifier), cast('27abcf37-2093-43d5-ae62-2e7b10fe4692' as uniqueidentifier), cast('c9f43598-2b9c-47b0-9230-37440e6aea54' as uniqueidentifier), cast('c5964caa-5c73-4c0e-bb80-4c1dc7e11039' as uniqueidentifier), cast('6ac30678-3876-43c9-b708-61ef19b5ea17' as uniqueidentifier), cast('e69d870a-87de-4e3d-b4fc-62c962489a7b' as uniqueidentifier), cast('a7c2f407-c605-4491-85fe-66c16fc15586' as uniqueidentifier), cast('a38f452e-ee3a-4be7-94ad-99c1474a417f' as uniqueidentifier), cast('b0f65616-d5d1-4af9-bffd-9c4b2b7f52e7' as uniqueidentifier), cast('3940fed6-9c40-4db6-bdc2-9dc5ef7b49ea' as uniqueidentifier), cast('e09f7618-c7d7-414d-b5d7-9ec22b3e9b64' as uniqueidentifier), cast('62c91349-d33f-42ed-b16d-a63424acca4a' as uniqueidentifier), cast('46812e72-45af-426e-9d72-aafdbcc9c4a7' as uniqueidentifier), cast('2a1d2b2a-0471-4f57-adc5-b42a03eb5e01' as uniqueidentifier), cast('2797d370-b237-4d2c-bede-b7af67f2b0f4' as uniqueidentifier), cast('0c50bb44-133e-4434-b403-c172873564e9' as uniqueidentifier), cast('dda75f7a-d366-472e-81b5-c4f3119dd715' as uniqueidentifier), cast('cc469264-a706-49c6-961b-d6520437e796' as uniqueidentifier), cast('ee2d7ea0-1f94-4cc3-9f64-d8d56374cae5' as uniqueidentifier), cast('f7dc6b77-3735-479d-b420-e145d4e3d66f' as uniqueidentifier), cast('8a7dbe93-ed1a-49f3-a3d0-e19c6dd4e4ef' as uniqueidentifier), cast('b0524a60-f980-4b82-a799-e788a9a4d04b' as uniqueidentifier), cast('ceaf8a0b-f410-4f88-9062-e804b76b6e78' as uniqueidentifier))) AND ([Extent1].[EventCode] = 1799) AND ([Extent1].[Date] >= '2018-04-22 10:00:00') AND ([Extent1].[Date] <= '2018-04-23 10:00:00') AND (([Extent1].[SiteID] = 'B02A51FE-2248-E611-A64E-782BCB72ACED') OR (([Extent1].[SiteID] IS NULL) AND ('B02A51FE-2248-E611-A64E-782BCB72ACED' IS NULL))) 
) as proeject1  order by proeject1.Date desc

These are the respective IO costs for queries.

(3721 row(s) affected)
Table 'Worktable'. Scan count 0, logical reads 0, physical reads 0, read-ahead reads 0, lob logical reads 0, lob physical reads 0, lob read-ahead reads 0.

Better plan

Actual execution plan with good performance

Actual execution plan with bad performance

I have tried:

1. Option recompile
2. DBCC FREEPROCCACHE
3. sp_updatestats
4. Rebuilding corresponding index

But query always picks this plan causing a huge load on server disk.

Thanks
