If you have >1 storage drives e.g. HDD, SDD do you see the same task manager activity with all other drives?
We'd also need to know something about your PC - model, number of storage drives, type of drives, CPU

Your taskbar pic shows WinRAR to be hitting the HDD at 62.5MB/s. Without knowing the exact sustained benchmark speed of your HDD I'd still hazard a guess that this shows that WinRAR - itself - is maxing out your HDD throughput (causing the 100% usage). This would be normal to me and nothing to worry about.
The only impact this will have depends on how long the extraction / copy period lasts - you're HDD will be maxed during this time...I don't think this would last too long to be inconvenient to you?

Nothing to worry about at all.
You will notice an improvement with a 7200RPM HDD, though the best improvement would be with even the cheapest SSD (as long as e.g. you are working from SSD to SSD e.g. load your rar file onto the the SSD then extract onto the SSD - you'll see a huge improvement here.
If your OS was on the SSD then you'll see the greatest improvement in general usage.
