[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 896146, member: 32260"] My friend bought a new Dell laptop a few years ago. It had pretty good parameters, but it was very slow. This slowness was still present after debloating. I noticed two things that were also noticed by people on MT who had WD problem: [LIST] [*][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)][B]too high disk activity[/B][/COLOR] [*][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)][B]too high WD activity[/B][/COLOR] [/LIST] On my computers, this activity was usually equal to 0%. But, on the computer of my friend, it was usually 3-10% on idle. Both parameters were visible in the task manager. Something probably worked on files in the background. I did not inspect this in detail. There could be many sources like: backup software, Windows File history, frequent software updates, factory firmware, etc. I found a simple solution for her by installing a fresh Windows 10. I did not also install the factory firmware and factory drivers (except one driver). All configuration and drivers were managed by Windows 10. The result was shocking. The computer was literally twice as fast as before. [/QUOTE]
