I have bought a new SSD a few days back and I installed windows on it. However, about a day or two later my computer began freezing randomly for a few seconds, including while playing games. I have also noticed that when this happens, in the task manager the disk usage shoots up to 100%. I am considering reinstalling windows if I don't find a solution but I have no idea if that will fix the issue.

Any help would be appreciated, and if you need any details feel free to ask.
