How to remove 'friezes' when working with two hard drives?

Question

Hard disks

There was one HDD for 1 Terabyte. Divided into 2 sections: Windows and the rest. I bought a 240GB SSD, divided it into 2 parts. Put Windows on it. 5 times a day, when you open a folder, toy, file, there is a slowdown, accompanied by the characteristic sound of something 'rotating' ... In addition to 2 hard drives, a drive is installed.

Answer 1

Doesn't Windows send it to "sleep" with a spindle stop? Look at the power settings. At one time (I don’t know how it is now), spinning up and stopping the spindle unnecessarily was considered evil.
