Hi, I have an odd one here. I have a couple of SSD's in my system, and a couple of HD's. I've installed everything on SSD's and am using HD's as data drives - I even went to the extent of installing windows 10 without any HD's plugged in during install, I added them after windows 10 was installed.
A few months later, I'm noticing 'HD' noises (you know the rattle of the head movements as the hunt for the data packets on the surface of the disk) all the time. So I open the Resource Monitor, and have a look at which process is making all that noise. I see NOTHING. Absolutely nothing access my external drives, yet the constantly whine as if they were optimizing or something.
Any one have any suggestions as to source the culprit? I read something somewhere about a Sentinal Service, but I don't have that installed.
