Drive running on 100%

[Pimplarn]

Hello!

My hard drive is constantly running in 100% in task manager. I’ve tried all fixes there is to try on the internet and nothing works. But as soon as I disconnect my internet cable it goes back to like 4-6% and when I connect it it rockets up to 100%

Checked for Virus's or Trojan's?

Hey, welcome to the forum.

 

What program is using so much HDD activity? Could it be a virus, perhaps? (Have you run a virus scan?)

Use Resource Monitor to check which process and file is running high.

True, could be something like onebox or dropbox that are syncing

I changed to a new hard driver. And had the same problem

check with you hard drive manufacturer for updates, check for processes that are killing the drive, run a benchmark on the drive (if needed), look for adware or other malicious programs etc.., there is also a windows update issue that can cause this and is resolved by update via media creation tool or bootable installation media.
