Hello, ive been having an Issue where my Disk Usage Spikes to 100% and Freezes my Computer and the only way to unfreeze hard reset, it generally happens when I open certain games or leave my computer for a period of time than come back too it, I feel like its a hardware failure, if anyway else has had this issue and fixed it before, any help with be greatly appreciated.

Also the Hard Drive im using is a Western Digital WD Blue 1TB WD10EZEX 3.5in

Try going to control panel, hardware and sound, power options, click on change plan settings, then click on change advanced power settings, a box will pop up, go to hard disk- turn off disk after, set it to 0 hit apply. See if that stops the problem.
