Windows 10: Unusual icons on disk drives

Hi Sir!Sir as you can clearly see in the picture there are unusual icons on my disk drives C and D. I don't know why....Please kindly help me to solve my issue.Thanks in advance

:)

 

Bootable USB drive appearing in Disk Management with unusual symbol

I have a bootable USB drive plugged into my PC and although it shows up in Disk Management, it doesn't show up in My Computer. Why does it have a weird symbol? It's the second drive in the list in Disk Management. Disk Management won't let me assign a drive letter, saying the list has to be refreshed, even though I just refreshed it.

 

Unusual hard disk behavior


I have power options set to never turn the hard disk off. So far the drive hasn't been shutting off, but the constant activity has continued.

This is my task manager processes sorted by most disk activity:





I also ran the Western Digital Diagnostics app and it passed the tests as you can see here:





As suggested I'm in the process of backing up my drive, but I would certainly prefer it not die on me. *Sad
