Ok so this happened only in few games, such as Battlefield 4 and now Shadow of Mordor
While playing the game, the HDD LED is on all the time , and the game tends to freeze a lot , every 30 secs or so, it was much less in BF4, but the more I played the game, the more it was freezing
No impact on FPS though, in Shadow Of Mordor on lowest I have around 98, yet still those damn freezes, whenever I move the camera a bit
I did the test with Dxtory , I have around 45 - 52 mb/s , so I suppose that's pretty low, while I saw on youtube some people had over 100 mb/s
Look, as you can see while recording in Crysis I have the same issue as well, and some other games too, not as drastic but it's pretty annoying, I noticed that only with codecs which create large filesizes I tend to get freezes while recording less demanding games.

specs : i5 4670k , GTX 650 Ti, 4GB RAM ( I also think I need more RAM >.<)
And here it is one of the most crappiest HDD, it's also old :
Hitachi Hitachi hds72161pla380 160GB
So do you think it's the HDD or I need more RAM, I think HDD is causing this problem more since I have freezes while recording less demanding game
and no don't suggest me to get a SSD cause I don't know, I tend to record a lot and move data a lot so I heard they wear out faster by doing that and I don't have enough $$ to get a HDD and a SSD
