Windows 8 Hard Drive Process at 100
So today I logged on my computer and noticed my pc was going really slow, so I checked my task manager and saw that Steam was using 99.9% disk space. I thought that was odd so I ended the task. Then the game I was playing which is the Original Rome Total War started getting 99.9% disk space. I ended that program but it kept jumping tasks till finally my System process was doing it too. After a while of searching the web I just decided to reinstall windows completely without keeping any original files. It has finally finished but the problem still persists. This really worry's me because I am thinking my HDD is busted or something along those lines.
Can anyone offer me some assistance?

What does S.M.A.R.T. for the HDD report? Use something like Speccy to give SMART stats.

Personally don't like it, too vanilla. Not enough info, I like numbers. To each their own.

To each their own I suppose. If reported unhealthy, then I would proceed further looking at the numbers.

Nice kitty. We had a girl that was with us 22 years. Broke our hearts when she passed, they become a family member.
