Windows 10: System running at 100% Disk space !

Ok , I’m a lil computer savvy I’d say but not really. I had this problem before and had to dig why down in the system files and change the indexing ratio from 1 to 0 and it fixed it for a while. I just looked at task manager again and it’s running at 100% Disk space again ... am I missing something? If anyone can help or send me in a direction to solve this I’d really appreciate it.

Disk 100% busy, System Unusable

• Windows 10 Education Ed, version 1709
• 1 x SSD boot disk
• Storage Space Device of 2 x 2TB disks mirrored

This is a recent change in behaviour, new in the last 1-3 months I would guess. My Storage Space Device frequently goes to 100% busy, rendering my system more or less inoperable. Any process / event that touches the Storage Space Device results in this behaviour.
I don't see anything relevant in the Event Viewer.

I've tried many of the online suggestions such as disabling search and SuperFetch but that has not helped.

Just now I was trying to update a route in Garmin Basecamp. When I initiated the route recalculation, the Storage Space Device went to 100% busy and stayed there for 10 - 15 minutes or so with the route recalculation showing now progress. Then disk activity
suddenly went to zero and the route recalculation completed in what I would consider a "normal" amount of time.

Last week I was trying to copy music files between my NAS and my desktop, but had the same problems.

Try to run theSystem Maintenance Troubleshooter.
