  1. 100% Disk, Unusable Win10 since 20H2 because Windows neglected hybrid SSD's, Ruined PC, now...


    So Microsoft has been wreaking havoc in 2020, and they decided to up the ante this year. I finally received a new SSD drive to try a clean install of Windows today so I can use my PC to survive during a pandemic, and Windows decided "Nah, we're going to throw you another nonsense curveball and try to shake you down and make you pay for a brand new license for our decrepit OS".

    What is the deal? Do you not have Quality Assurance any more?
    All of my permissions are messed up beyond repair to this point and I have no confidence my license for my upgrade from windows 8 which I should have never done but Microsoft forced it on all of us is even going to work.

    You just lost a giant lawsuit in Canada, you want to go for round two?

    Disk 100% busy, System Unusable

    • Windows 10 Education Ed, version 1709
    • 1 x SSD boot disk
    • Storage Space Device of 2 x 2TB disks mirrored

    This is a recent change in behaviour, new in the last 1-3 months I would guess. My Storage Space Device frequently goes to 100% busy, rendering my system more or less inoperable. Any process / event that touches the Storage Space Device results in this behaviour.
    I don't see anything relevant in the Event Viewer.

    I've tried many of the online suggestions such as disabling search and SuperFetch but that has not helped.

    Just now I was trying to update a route in Garmin Basecamp. When I initiated the route recalculation, the Storage Space Device went to 100% busy and stayed there for 10 - 15 minutes or so with the route recalculation showing now progress. Then disk activity
    suddenly went to zero and the route recalculation completed in what I would consider a "normal" amount of time.

    Last week I was trying to copy music files between my NAS and my desktop, but had the same problems.

    Win10: windows update stuck at never ending loop ?

    When in win10:
    • Update&security -> Windows update -> Finding update... .... .... ....
    Planning to download the latest Win10.ISO (vers.1803) and manually update:
    - Then wait that my ordered new SSD arrives and clone the old HDD to it.

    Win10 clean install on Samsung SSD 850 EVO

    BLUF: SSD is not listed ubder "Where do you want to install Windows?"

    Steps Complete:

    1. I've create a Win10 bootable install usb.

    2. I connect the new Samsung SSD 850 EVO via SATA.

    3. I reboot PC and verify SSD is seen by the motherboard/BIOS

    4. Begin Win10 install via usb.

    5. Get to "Where do you want to install Windows?" and the SSD is not listed

    Problems:

    1. Samsung does not offer a driver for the 850 on their website

    2. Cannot locate driver elsewhere

    Unsuccessful Mitigations Steps Attempt:

    A. Format & partition SSD via Windows Disk Management, then retried steps 1-5 above....same result

    B. Clone existing HHD onto SSD via "Image for Windows" by TeraByte, then verified SSD contents via Windows Explorer....similar result

    Can you please offer some advice on locating a driver for a Samsung SSD 850 EVO 1TB drive? Or an alternative method?

    Thank you
