Ok so, recently I've had this problem with my laptop.
Basically, the hard drive keeps going to 100% usage and is slowing down my computer a lot.
And it happens frequently too, like every 10 seconds or so.
There are some times when it kinda has a break and works normally for a few minutes, but then it starts again. It's not a crucial problem to the point where the hard drive can be considered dead, I can still use my laptop normally (although I say that, it's extremely annoying when things slow down a lot for a couple of seconds every 10 seconds-ish).
I've also recently discovered that, by unplugging the power cable, it works just fine in terms of hard drive usage percentage/actual performance. Games used to crash at the start every time, but if I unplug the power, and plug it back in after the game has loaded a bit/passed the loading screen, the game works just fine.
I've tried to search for bad sectors, the first time it detected some, removing about 15-20gb ish, the second time detecting one, but not actually doing anything.
I'd like help with this as soon as possible, thanks.
