Hdd stuck at 100%

Hi, I have been having problems with serious studdering in gta and other games, my cpu usage hasn't gone higher than 50% and gpu hasn't gone higher than 75%. Ram is about 80% used when gaming

Perhaps you should consider moving to a true SSD rather than a hybrid drive. I would guess it's studdering whenever it needs to read data from the platters of the Seagate drive. Also, you might want to check that your drive's sleep settings are turned off. Otherwise, the drive might be spinning down and then having to spin back up when it needs to be accessed. Your UEFI settings might even need to be adjusted.

How do I adjust the sleep settings
