I recently bought a new WD 1TB M.2 SSD for game storage in my new PC. Whenever I turn on the PC or restart it, I am unable to access files or launch games for about the first 5 minutes. Trying to browse files causes file explorer to hang. Games that I try to launch such as Apex Legends are simply unresponsive until the drive has time to read. When this is happening, the drive is at 0% usage. Also, in the performance tab of Task Manager, the drive is not there until it becomes responsive. This includes my other 2 drives which are a 1TB WD HDD and a Sandisk 240GB SATA SSD for a boot drive.
Thanks to anyone that has any advice for my issue!
