SSD Stutter

I've got a Samsung 850 EVO in my laptop and about 1 minute after booting up my mouse freezes and I can't move it, then it frees up and all is well again, what the hell can be wrong with my SSD? I've benchmarked it and it appears to give me the advertised speeds but It shouldn't make my mouse freeze to the point where I can't use it for about 5 seconds... Any ideas?

What makes you think it's the SSD causing it?

What else could it be?

Don't think so, it's a 3630qm 12GB RAM only happens just after boot and very rarely happens any other time. Might try a fresh windows install...

Doesnt mean your RAM isnt faulty or something else is up, worth checking out too

A clean install could fix things but it could also be hardware, I doubt its an SSD "stuttering" especially if it seems to be working fine otherwise

RAM for example or the CPU. Secondary HDDs even. The SSD should be the last thing that would cause issues like this. Unless you like moved the OS from a non-identical computer onto this one. Even then it'd be the data that's at fault, not the SSD. SSDs really only suffer from being (nearly) full. Other than that they either work perfectly or not at all.

That's more like it, thanks.

 

My laptop has got 2 drive bays 1 for SSD and 1 for HDD so yeah it could be the 2nd hdd. Plus I Upgraded from 8.1 and it's always been in the back of my mind to do a fresh windows 10 install I just CBA
