Windows 10: Disk utilization problem in Windows 11

This is a fresh install of Windows 11 Home 64-bit and I noticed after checking Task Manager throughout the day that my system has a minimum disk utilization of 14% even when I boot up. It goes above 14%. but never below. On Windows 10 if I wasn't running any apps hammering the disk I'd have disk utilization around 0%-3%. Any possible solution? See attached screenshot!

100% Disk Utilization on Windows 10

I have read all the threads on 100% disk utilization for Windows 10 and don't know what else to do to solve the problem (plus some threads go on for 38 pages). It shouldn't be this hard; looking for some suggestions. Thanks!

 

Disk management console view is not up-to-date

i dont know how to fix your disk management, but i can fix your partition problems...




open up Command Prompt with admin rights. (Right click, run as admin)


enter in
DISKPART
list disk

then find the Disk number for your Raid array... lets call it number 7 ( you can tell what disk is what by the total size)
type in

Select Disk 7
List Partition (will give you a list of all the partitions..)
Select Partition 1 (im assuming you only have 1 partition on Disk 7) repeat this step if you have more partitions.
ASSIGN


that should get the array up and running ready to use.


EDITED.

any problems, post back ^^


Still EDITING *Stick Out Tongue

side question, have you tried restarting the PC?
