Is your BCLK anything other than 100 in BIOS?

QUOTE ME IN A REPLY SO I CAN SEE THE NOTIFICATION!

When there is no danger of failure there is no pleasure in success.

In your BIOS, usually under the CPU overclocking page if it exists.

BCLK 100 is default, so you're good there.  I only had this error on 2 separate drives when my BCLK wasn't 100.

100% active time but 0s for read/write sounds like a dead drive to me. Try to find if it is spinning by listening to it or touching it to feel for vibrations. If it's pegged at 100% and spinning you'll be able to tell easily.

Check the  processes tab in in Task Manager and order the list by disk usage, see what's using the disk so heavily.
