Using a hard drive is a very common problem. It can lead to low FPS, longer boot times, hanging and hard disk damage. In most cases this happens when your hard disk is struggling to work at maximum efficiency because it is delayed by certain programs and processes. Your hard disk is constantly overloaded with standard Windows programs and services, which slows it down. Since all the processes and services on your hard disk are considered as one task, it is difficult to determine which program requires more attention.

- Select the hard disk you want to erase. Your computer will display additional information about the free space.
- Select the option to Erase system files to start the process.

Slow performance? Run a disk check
This performance problem is most obvious when trying to find a file or program using Windows Search, as well as when everything else is necessary for the drive to work (perhaps by copying and pasting a group of files).
- To see if this is a problem for you, next time you slow down your computer, press Ctrl + Alt + Del and select Task Manager.
- (You can also right-click on the taskbar and select “Task Manager”). Note that if the disk is under load, it may take some time to open it.
- On the first tab, “Process”, find the “Disk” column. If you have performance problems with the disk, it should be 100% and painted red to indicate whether you have a problem or not.
- Problems sectors of your hard drive may cause a 100% disk usage problem in Windows 10. However, hard disk scanning, built-in in Windows, can solve this problem.
- Open Windows Explorer, select “This computer” and define your hard disk drive. Right-click C: and select “Properties”. From there, find the “Tools” tab and click “Verify” in the “Checking errors” section.
- In the window that appears click Scan disk. Wait for the system to analyze the disk. A reboot may be required for a complete repair of the hard disk. This should solve the problem.
