Windows 10: SSD freezes every now and then for a few seconds

Ever since I finished building my PC in early October, I quickly encountered the issue that my image and, most of the time, my sound too, freezes for a couple of seconds, then everything works as usual again.
I researched that issue since it first happened and tried every solution I could find but to no avail. I have reinstalled Win10 but kept my data, because I want to avoid having to reinstall tons of software, etc. So I want to keep, completely wiping my system and reinstalling everything, as a last resort.

I don't know what I could try to fix the issue, without having to either install Win10 to another SSD or to reinstall Win10 completely. The SSD is a Samsung 860 Evo 1TB, and I ordered it with the other components for the PC, so it is a new one and wasn't in use before. Since Win10 updated multiple times since it first began and no update changed anything about the issue, I don't think a Windows Version number is possible to provide. Though, I am currently on Version 1903.

Thanks in advance for your help. I hope the issue is resolved soon.

SSD stops and freezes laptop

Couple of updates:

1. I created a Linux boot USB key, and monitored my SSD under Linux, so this is evidently not a Windows issue, and
2. I loaded new firmware for the SSD, and my system seems to be functioning normally now. What a pleasure using a PC that doesn't consistently freeze up.

Thanks to all y'all for your suggestions!

Regards,

Dave

SSD usage peaks at 100% and Windows freezes for a few seconds

Hi, recently I bought a SSD (Kingston SA400S37480G) and installed Windows 10 in it. But, sometimes, the Task Manager shows a 100% usage of it, even though nothing is running or the usage is very low for it to freeze. Then, I have to wait a few seconds
for Windows to come back.

It is really bothering me, because I use my PC to play online games and I get impaired for a few seconds in the middle of a match, for example, which affects my performance. I used to have Windows installed in my HDD and no freezes like these used to happen.

My drivers for the SSD are in AHCI, the BIOS is also configured to AHCI, the system event log does not contain any events with Event ID 129, and I have already ran the '' DISM.exe
/Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth'' and the ''sfc /scannow'' commands and there were no errors.

Can someone help me?

Sincerely.
