Hi, 

 

Today randomly my PC started to get 100% usage spikes on the SSD that doesn't have the OS on it. It appears pretty randomly and goes away after ~20-30s. All programs(mostly games) running from that SSD freeze. I updated Windows but it didn't resolve the issue.

 

Specs:

It's a ROG G752VS(Laptop) with:

- i7-6700HQ

- 16 GB of RAM

- Windows 10

- GTX 1070

- Samsung 970 (non-pro) SSD (500 GB) boot drive

- XPG SX6000PRO SSD (1 TB) (This one has the usage spikes)

- Both SSDs are M.2 PCIE

 

I don't understand how it appeared as it worked just fine the day before.

 

Any ideas what could be the cause for that?

 

Thanks in advance
