    RAID causing 100% disk usage freeze?


    Hello,I installed two Sata HDD Drives in Raid 0, so I had to switch from AHCI to Raid. Therefore I did a clean install with the latest windows versions and raid drivers 2.20.1937 using RAID_NVMe_DID. Every single time I end up with a clean systems randomly freezing with 100% Disk usage no data throughput on my SATA SSD drive and sometimes also on my NVMe drive. I did several reinstalls, but the problem persists, even after disabling the usual suspects: superfetch, bits, windows search, notifications, defender ... The problems started with switching to raid:

    100% disk usage

    The most common cause of 100% disk usage appears to be Superfetch and Prefetch, but there are also other causes. You can try disabling both these features and see if it helps.

    This article provides steps to disable prefecth and superfetch:

    100% disk usage and memory usage

    Hi,

    100% disk usage and memory usage can be caused by a software corruption, running application running on the background and malware or virus infection.

    For us to properly isolate the issue and provide an appropriate resolution, kindly answer the questions below:

    • Did the issue happen after installing the Fall Creators?
    • Did you receive any error messages?
    • Can you send us the screenshot of the Task Manager showing the 100% disk usage and memory usage?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    For isolation purposes, please perform a clean boot to see if the same issue will occur. Refer to this
    article for more information on how to perform a clean boot
    in Windows.

    Looking forward to your response.

    RAID causing 100% disk usage freeze?

    How to solve 100 % disk usage in windows 10 after fall update?

    Hi Manikanteswara,

    Usually, a virus could be the main cause of 100% disk usage. The first step in rectifying the problem is to check your disk usages. You need to open the Task Manager and take a look at your disk usages to identify the programs or applications that are causing
    your hard disk 100% usage. Here's how:

    • Type task manager in the Windows search bar and select the best match.
    • In the Processes tab, look at the disk process to see what is causing your hard disk 100% usage.

    Kindly send a screenshot, so I can take a closer look.

    Hoping to hear from you soon.
