Gaming PC lagging at simple tasks !

So i have a pc with these specs :
i5-7400
GTX 1050
8GB Ram DDR4
500GB HDD

I've had this pc for 3 months now and it worked and gamed perfectly fine until last night ! I opened GTA V and i was getting 25-30 fps ( i usually get 60-75 ) , then i noticed the pc was lagging at simple tasks like opening folders , web browsers etc. The disk usage sometimes goes at 90% and I don't know why . The weird thing is that this lagging starts 5 minutes after I boot up the pc . At first it seems just fine. What seems to be the problem ?
 
Solution
Bad or loose SATA cable can result in huge spike in Disk Usage which in turn cause system to become unresponsive and it'll show that the the disk average response time would shoot up into several seconds (it'll show as thousands of milliseconds) in Task Manager of W8/W10.
