[SOLVED] HDD at 100% and slow startup time

[MicahO]

So my PC has been acting weird for about 5 months it took 8:39 to start the PC and it stays at 100% disk usage for anywhere from 10 minutes to until I turn it off. I have a Seagate ST2000DM008-2FR102 2TB hard drive and no SSD that's what my friends say is the problem but any help would be great.

It says system is using all of it so I disabled Sysmain and it still stays system is using 100% disk.

I'd be look at CrystealDIskInfo summary on it...;would not surprise me to see it in yellow with reallocated sectors given long boot times, etc;...which would mean shopping for an SSD, a good move anyway.

HDD's are generally fairly slow on bootup, and terrible with random write. It's likely the antivirus doing random write which is killing the performance of the hdd and/or the hard drive is dying out of use.

The anti-malware could be the problem try to disblenthat and also download disk info and look if he says your HDD is going to fail if je open crystal info and your disk is yellow it is probably beter to buy new hdd or ssd

I did get this HDD in October as a PC repair it ran good all the way til the near end of December. I'll disable antivirus and check if that helps.
