Windows 10: Random applications spiking SSD usage.

I've ran multiple diagnostics on my SSD and it doesn't seem like anything is wrong with it. Genuinely don't know what's going on

Random 100% SSD usage spikes freeze computer for 15-30 seconds

Hey guys, I've been having an issue with my computer for the last couple of months where it randomly freezes (could be simply using Word or playing any game), I've been trying to find a solution but I've been unsuccesful. Whenever it happens, the task manager shows a 100% usage for the SSD without any real indication of what could be causing it:

Debating on buying another SSD to see if that fixes it. Also, I found a post from 2016 with the same problem but I couldn't make Intel RST work on my PC Random spikes of 100% disk activity on system drive. Would seriously appreciate your help. Thanks !

Hey friend! Today I solved the issue, it was a persistent problem. You have to update your kingston firmwere. That's it. Use Kingston SSD Manager

 

I Usually get random lag spikes when regularly using my Laptop and my Prossecers usage spikes during those lag spikes and sometimes stays from 100% usage to 80% while running a few chrome tabs
