Hi all,
I appreciate any help in advance if I don't say so later!
The problem is my HDD (non SSD) is appearing to constantly reading/writing to a particular device or set of devices that are no longer connected to the system. I have run Process Monitor, and the culprits that are apparently causing it are these svhost connections (proof was in the registry) with some USB devices I use from time to time, two external HDD's.
Please refrain from clueing me in on the wonders of defrag, dskchk, disabling indexing and whatelse have you because trust me - I've tried everything else under the sun that has been suggested in other threads to similar problems - none have worked. It really appears to be specific to these disks. Is there any way I can stop my computer from trying to access these? I've tried reconnecting etc.
