Stutter System Suttering Troubleshooting assistance needed
I noticed a concern about one of your HDDs possibly not working properly after adding two new 4TB drives. Since you can only connect two at a time at 3.5", it might be best to remove one drive, install the new one, and then transfer data from the old one using both methods. Repeat this process with the other old drive before finalizing with the two new ones.
I generally prefer to pull the drive and copy its data externally to a newly installed internal drive. Normalize the system in the new configuration then migrate the data. If you're worried about the drive failing while transferring data, there's really no way I've found to safely do that. Either risk it with one big transfer or risk it with a bunch of small transfers. Really depends on how you're feeling that day I guess If you're using a ton of drives with tons of data, which it seems like you are, I'd highly recommend offloading that to another system setup like a NAS. It doesn't take much CPU power, but if you're getting more sensitive to frame time latency in your games, then its always going to be bad with HDDs. CPUs and GPUs can now drive a high enough and consistent enough frame rate now to where having HDDs plugged in at all into a gaming PC just isn't worth it. Better off having it connected via a NIC to another CPU managing those drives.
It wouldn't be accurate to call it a minor change in frame time; it's more akin to a sharp drop from 200 to 0 over two seconds and then reversing.
TV disconnection hasn't resolved the stuttering issue; it remains unchanged. New screen animation detection hasn't occurred yet, possibly indicating a recent fix.
