    HDD usage spiking, short squeaky/creaky sound when at 100%

    Hello everyone!

    It's been a couple of days since my HDD start making a short, squeaky/creaky noice (definitely not grinding). At first it seemed random, then I noticed it's when the HDD is at 100% usage.

    I have also noticed that my WiFi is spiking and was wondering if it may be related to the HDD issue somehow?

    The HDD is used purely for storage, I have my OS and software on my SSD.

    Model number and Windows version are visible in my specs.

    I've done the following:

    • ran Hard Disk Sentinel and CrystalDiskMark - both showing 'Good' as a result.
    • ran chkdsk - no apparent issues (screenshot attached)
    • disabled all startup programmes
    • ran windows defender - no issues found

    What may be the cause of this?

    Let me know if I need to provide more details.

    Thank you in advance!

    100% disk usage. New hdd and new windows install

    My HDD keeps spiking to 100% this morning I installed a brand new hdd as the issue was happening on previous HDD. Also a fresh windows 10 pro installation and the issue continues. I'm currently doing another fresh windows install. Hdd sticks around 1-2%
    but little tasks such as chrome or starting a download spike it up to 100% for around 5-10 minutes. Tried a lot of fixes on the net but to no avail
