I am still an ancient 5400RPM Hard Drive user. This is an ENORMOUS issue in Windows 10, where everything for NO apparent reason uses 100% of my HDD and takes actual tens of seconds to load. I'm talking the start menu, the search bar, the right click context menu, the notifications centre, the clock, the on-screen keyboard, the settings app, the User Account Control pop-up. EVERYTHING that Windows 10 has as its own unique feature takes AGES to load. This is happening since I started using this OS in 2015, and its finally driving me nuts, as I play GTA V, an HDD heavy game as it loads so many assets and is also broken, anyway, as I play, Windows decides it's time for the System task to use 50 MB/s of my HDD, together with the shadow copy service, Your Phone app, Office, and anything else it can think of. I am sick of this OS so bad I seriously wanna go back to Windows 7. At least it worked. Anyway, anyone know what to do? I am so done with this OS. I should add, my father, who has a far slower machine overall, runs this OS just fine. This is ridicilous. All of this happens even after a reinstall. And yes, my HDD is 6 years old.

SSD, what a terrible choice! You'd trade your peace for a blistering 5400 RPM of pure chaos.

2.5" SATA offers a budget-friendly option. Purchase 120/250GB drives for Windows. You may also utilize 5400RPM as an alternative speed.

No matter how inexpensive it is. I'm a 14-year-old with no money to spare. Upgrading my gear feels like something I might get in a few months.

I understand your point. I'll take a closer look. My legal start date for part-time work is 15, and I'm turning 18 in three months.

I'm not seeking tips on acquiring funds for new equipment. I'm checking whether my existing storage device has a fix for this problem.

I'm not entirely sure about this. There should likely be a method to eliminate Office, halt updates and data collection. It has been achieved before, but I don't know the details.
