HDD over-utilization

Since i received my first laptop in 2014, it has been plagued with hard-disc over-utilization. I now own a new(old) laptop that belonged to my mother, which is a Sony Vaio, it too has been plagued with the same issue only much worse. From the moment i turn it on to the second it powers down. It does sometimes however settle down after a while but once it does go down it seems to go into a exteremely unstable state where the utilization does not remain c  I need help in resolving this issue as im at the point where ive done everything apart from deleting system32 ^_^

All Jokes aside, id love to receive some advice on ways to remedy this issue and hopefully be able to use my computer properly again.

ok ive given that program a go, its reported that the disk is healthy and that theres nothing to worry about. Despite the good report from the program, when i powered on the system to check the forums, the same issue occurred where the disk usage spiked and was held at 100%. It did thankfully go down after about 10 minutes but who knows how long that will actually last. Thanks for letting me know of that program it seems pretty decent.
