I consider myself an IT professional, but there is this issue I can't figure out, because no actual error message is associated with the occurrence.
Sometimes - unfortunately more and more often, which prompted me to write here - my explorer just freezes for 10-20 minutes, then recovers and everything continues as if nothing had happened. While the computer is freezing I can see in resource monitor that programs get to read my storage just fine, but writing doesn't happen and this is the ONLY abnormality I can associate with this occurrence. The event log records no error or anything related to this, every single program I have running at the time explorer starts freezing keeps working fine as long as it doesn't try to access storage for writing, then it freezes too and they all recover the same time, write their data and continue as if nothing had happened.
Could it be SSD trim going haywire? I have no idea, every test program I throw at it says it's in good condition (even the performance, considering the 54.2 TBW), besides, writing is denied for the duration of the freeze to hard drives as well. I can't think of anything, if I do not see an error message, I can't troubleshoot it.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

- Some of the hardware might seem odd (PSU, SSD), but I'm not wasting money on replacing perfectly functional hardware only because a newer version is out. Nor am I willing to pay extortion money for replacements or intended upgrades (GPU, RAM), especially if that "upgrade" has a hardware design flaw (CPU).
