Question My SSD has 100% disk usage when it's barely doing anything, and it's not even a year old ?

[zzahkaboom24]

My PC specs:


1x Intel Core i7-11700F, 8x2.5 GHz (Rocket Lake)
1x be quiet! Pure Rock Slim 2 (supersilent)
2x ADATA XPG Gammix D10 8GB DDR4-3200 MHz
1x Inno3D GeForce RTX 3070 iChill X4 LHR, 8GB GDDR6, HDMI, DP
1x ASUS Prime B560M-A, Sockel 1200, mATX, B560
1x Innovation IT 1000 GB SSD SATA SSD, 2.5 Zoll SATA BLK
1x 650Mbit Wireless-LAN + Bluetooth USB Adapter, DMG-07, 802.11ac
1x Thermaltake TR2 S 700W, 80+, 85% Wirkungsgrad
1x ATX-Midi Void, LED RGB, Tempered Glass

OS = Windows 10

What I have tried so far to fix the issue:

• Ran chkdsk.exe /f /r
• Cleaned my PC of any dust
• Turned off the "drive turning off thing" from the control panel by changing the default option (20) to 0
• Reinstalled Windows "multiple times" (just to be greeted with the same issue a few hours later or a day/2 days later
• Disabled SysMain temporarily to see if it fixes it and some other services that were talked about on some sites about this issue
• Running Windows in Safe Mode (same thing)
• Running sfc /scannow
• Running Dism checkhealth, restorehealth and whatever dism commands ive seen recommended

I ran CrystalDiskInfo and it told me my SSD is fine, so i doubt its because of my SSD and using Windows Defender no viruses were found, so it must be because of something from Windows, but I am slowly losing my nerves with this and therefore I am hoping to be able to find someone from here that can help or even better fix this issue.

My SSD is a InnovationIT SSD and there is no "official" software to check the health of my SSD, so CrystalDiskInfo is the only thing I can use.

This is how it looks like after a fresh install, attempting to get stuff done is hard as everything is awfully slow:

This is how it looked like on Windows 11 under "Performance":

Also under Windows 11 I cant tell what my Ressoucemonitor says:

So basically the System process is taking up most, also after 10-20 minutes everything normalizes, however it spikes back up to 100% after opening a new app.

I also tried everything from this, to no avail:

I don’t want to be rude, but this looks like a cheap SSD. It doesn’t seem to be a popular brand and a Google search leads me to this Amazon product which has 0 reviews. https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Innovation-SSD-1TB-Black-Retail/dp/B07YBYLNHX

Exactly how old is it? I’d assume that it doesn’t have a warranty on it, so you’ll probably need to buy a new one from a high quality brand.

Try disabling superfetch and windows search services.

I already tried that the previous Windows reinstalls, that didnt fix it

Ive already tried all 5 threads mentioned in another thread here and all 5 did not fix it

Sounds like a hardware issue if nothing you’ve done has worked.

Thats why I believe my SSD is at fault here. But my SSD working as usual after waiting it out is kinda weird to me. You are probably right, but I cant buy a new SSD at this very moment so ill have to use what I have
