Question 100% Disk Usage even after hard reset

[Formidabilis]

I've tried nearly every single thing posted and I can't find a solution no matter what and it's driving me insane. I don't understand why this is happening at all, I've tried looking it up and doing everything possible but it just won't work. I hard reset the computer and then reinstalled a fresh update of windows 10 and still, nothing. When the computer is idle, the disk usage will sit kinda down but sometimes occasionally spike up, when I am doing something it'll spike to 100% and it's just so annoying. I'm not super tech savvy but if you need anything that'd help you help me I'd be glad to help. Anything is really appreciated.

CPU - AMD FX-6100 Six-Core 3.30 GHz
GPU - NIVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti
RAM - 8GB

I have not tried the drive in another computer, I'm not sure how I'd go about doing that. If the problem is the HDD, would it be better to put the HDD of another computer in this one or no? The other computer's OS is still Windows 8, would Windows 10 go away?

Hi @Formidabilis !

Can you please provide a screenshot of your Task manager with your drive under load?

Looking forward to help you!

And take a look in Resource Monitor as well.

The Process list and Disk Activity graphics may help you identify the reason for the spikes.
