Windows 10: Why CPU Utilization Is Different When Using Different Hard Drives?

Hi all,

I'm using Corel VideoStudio X8 Pro to edit video files.
However, I've found an issue about the differences among the speed of exporting video using different external hard drives.

When I use a 4T Western Digital external hard drive or a 4T Transcend external hard drive to store the original video files and use VideoStudio to edit and export the edited video to an internal hard drive, the CPU Utilization of my laptop maintains at about 89% with a stable and high CPU speed, but when I used some other hard drive including 4T ADATA external hard drive, 1T Seagate external hard drive to store the original video files and export the edited video file to the internal hard drive, the CPU Utilization fluctuates from as low as single digit % to more than 80% and can't maintain at about 89% and causes the total time taken to export the same length of video from the same project becomes a lot slower (50%) than when the WD or Transcend hard drives are used.

Does anyone know why does this happen and how to make the slower one become faster?

Thanks!

Hard drive swap, different connections

I tried to hook up my old hard drive to a newer mobo, but the hard drive doesn't have the SATA cable (i think that's what it's called). Instead it only has a connection that looks similar to the CDROM data cable.

I found a spot on the mobo to put it and it seemed like it would work, but when i turn on the computer it starts to boot up, then resets after about 10 seconds (well before it boots windows). Then as its booting up after the reset, it does it again at the same place.

It obviously recognizes the drive; if i boot up without it connected at all it stops me after only a few seconds saying there is no hard drive.

But why doesn't it boot up completely?

(by the way this is for a different system than the one i have the specs listed for to the left)
