Question ADATA SU655 at 100% usage and bad block errors spammed in Event Viewer ?

My system drive (ADATA SU655) started to hit 100% randomly upon starting my computer, mostly when apps were starting up, running, etc. As a result, my computer's load speeds are extremely low and laggy. I checked the event viewer and found out that an error called "The device, \Device\Harddisk0\DR0, has a bad block." was being spammed in my system logs. I tried the error checking tool in the properties of my system drive, and it detected errors, restarted, and supposedly fixed the errors. After the Error check, my c drive is still hitting 100%, Windows is acting slow, etc. I've tried sfc/scannow, restarting, booting into safe mode, and checking my drive's health status on ADATA's toolbox. I'm currently at a loss and expect that my C Drive gave out after four years of usage. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Note: Coincidentally, this issue started after upgrading my corsair lpx ram to 32gb 3200mhz. I'm going to swap out my new ram for my old ram and run the same tests I did.

would expect that out of adata budget ssds. lots friends of mine used the SU650 and got bad blocks like you in several months.
 
Check CrystalDiskInfo for drive errors/issues. While the SU650/SU655 is not a good drive, it's just as likely your memory had errors at its given speeds/timings (possibly IMC/board limitation) which corrupted data on the disk. You should always test when adding new memory - Prime95 cache can test IMC, blend for memory, there's other tests as well (yes, MemTest, Karhu is good, etc).

My board supports up to 3200(OC) Mhz. Also I ran the windows memory diagnostic, no errors were found. Should I try memtest?

Edit: Ran into a new problem, my windows 10 isn't shutting down nor restarting, or may me just taking a really long time to do either. Already ran another CHKDSK and sfc/scannow. Both didn't seem to fix anything.

You might want to swap out the C drive and see if things change.
Perhaps before that reseat the sata data cable and power cable for this disk...test.

What is this virtual disk?
