Hi,
I have Lenovo Legion Y520 with below config which I purchased in Jan 2018
i5 8300H
8 GB Ram
128 GB SSD[C Drive, Windows] - update installed till 11th July
1 TB HDD [ D Drive ] - Have lot of data in it[ I have kept few programs installed in this drive rather than C Drive to save some space]
nVidia GTX 1050Ti
Office 365 subscription
Mcafee (full scan ran and no threats detected)
After the recent windows updates(11th July) and driver updates(via drive Booster software), I see some weird behavior in my laptop
1. After system starting and using for some time, the system just hangs/slows for a while(with only chrome/vivaldi running), couple of downloads in the background and windows explorer opened for file operations.
2. I noticed that disk read write % is starting from 50% and then reaching 80 to 100%. ( it never comes down without restarting)
3.I installed HD Sentinel and monitored the HDD and noticed that SSD drive health is 95% and D drive is 100%(img below). Is there a sign of failure in C drive?
4. All other vitals looks ok(img below) Except temperature in C drive which had max of 53 deg.
5. I opened resource monitor to look for vital process/id which is utilizing the disk (read/write operation) but I could not finalize the process. All programs switch sequentially and use page file.sys of Windows partition.
The memory usage of Java(to commit changes) also too high. The other being System process to Pagefile and Log file
6. Once this happens, even copy paste of documents/opening word doc is taking lengthy period(approx 800 MB file is estimating 30 mins to copy within d drive or from c drive to d drive). Once I restart the machine the copy paste functionality looks normal. Once I do copy -> paste, disk utilization is reaching 50% and active reaches 100%. In the below img, the copy speed was mere 1 Mb approx.(where as I have 90-100Mb till last week)
7. I searched web and I stopped BITS and windows search but they just restart by itself again but stopping them did not help either
8. I have some file indexing programs(everything and Excelo Desktop). I stopped them as well but the situation remains same.
9. Even after closing all apps, the disk utilization was 50% min and it is 100% active in the background.
Can someone guide me how to resolve this issue? It looks very annoying to see a medium powerful machine is behaving like this. Is this time for me to take back up from D Drive for safety?
Thanks
Guhan
