Solved Harddrive randomly goes to 100% and system doesn't respond

[Microbillgates]

So have 2 hard drives and Samsung is one with issue, seems as though SMART and chkdsk is fine. Did clean install recently and same exact issue.
But have put same exact software back on and then it happened or before you put all back on ?

The issue happened again at 22:05

Reset to device, \Device\RaidPort0, was issued.
and The IO operation at logical block address 0x23da738 for Disk 0 (PDO name: \Device\00000026) was retried.

It happened once during the Windows Installation Process. I thought it was a virus at first. But I knew it had to be something else.
So it happened on basically a clean install as well as a unclean install (I don't know the professional term for that)

Reset to device seems Port 0 where OS drive was reset usually done when rediscovered. How is your Power management plan set, balanced, high performance ? In my picture, check your device manager as you should have AMD controllers i believe what does it show AHCI ?

Not much drivers here, have this BIOS HP Software and Driver Downloads for HP Printers, Laptops, Desktops and More | HP® Support

22:25 - The IO operation at logical block address 0x2946ce6 for Disk 0 (PDO name: \Device\00000026) was retried.
22:33 The IO operation at logical block address 0x55b92a8 for Disk 0 (PDO name: \Device\00000026) was retried.

It happens at different LBAs
I've not changed my power mangement, It's been default before the issue happened, as well as after. Currently, I am using the default ACHI driver. But again, it was like that before the issue arose.

If move OS drive to try on another port instead of Port 0 may need to enter BIOS make sure boot order is correct to boot from Samsung or believe won't boot up then.
Think would have AMD controllers for the drive since chipset is AMD. Saying issues happened with windows 8.1 even 8. Does say AHCI , you know BIOS set to AHCI ?

Yes my BIOS is set to ACHI. and I can't really move OS to another drive as it is smaller than my main one.

Move the drive to another port, not reinstall the OS.

Done that, will let you know if it happens again (because it happens randomly with no signs)

Always hardest to determine, intermittent issues. As few different reasons why this can happen, need to try each one till find it, don't assume anything yet.

I moved it to SATA1 and I just got this as soon posted that message

The IO operation at logical block address 0x3eb56ed for Disk 0 (PDO name: \Device\00000026) was retried.

Sata1 was where my 160gb hard drive was. And that has had 0 issues. That drive has not given me any issues

Where are you seeing this error, exactly, on screen, event viewer ?

Event viewer.

Possible drive is bad or SATA Cable, as had same issue but mine disappeared in explorer when this happened, turned out to be the drive after trying cable change and port change. Try another SATA Cable, as i also received same warnings as you.

Hopefully all important files are backed up, if not do so now.

They are backed up.
Will let you know if it happens again. if it does I'll try and get a new drive

Have an extra SATA cable can replace it with ? Already happened once since moving to another port.
Or did you use same cable on same moved drive with the issue ?

I swapped the sata cable from disk 1 to disk0 . And I just had the same issue. Weird how SMART doesn't detect this. Anyway will try and order a new drive soon

Told you had similar issue,SMART did not for me, went about mine for months, another drive been working well for me for weeks now. Mine was an SSD which usually brick right away not slowly.

Good thing I made a system image earlier today will be ready for when this drive dies. Thanks anyway

If it did it once already, then chances it will again if this truly is the reasons for your issues. As changed ports and cable. Your most welcome, anytime !! Let us know how it goes.
