This Common Windows Issue Might Be Making Your PC Slow

[@mohamed3nan]

This is absolutely true-I have the same problem and use the trim thing as well, but sometimes it doesn't trim automatically!

[@marlarthan8664]

It does not do it automatically atall

[@davinp]

SSDs don't get defragmented as hard drives do. Windows 11 is supposed to automatically run the trim command

[@nixlad]

Love your channel bro. Nothing better than chill videos of you tinkering with Windows

[@vasigaran_vip_theboss8951]

💯

[@techwizard9699]

I just manually run trim every now and then regardless of whether it has run automatically or not.

[@D.von.N]

I remember, a few months ago, it was said that Win10 has been running this trim function far too many times, like at 10x the frequency needed, leading to reduced lifespan of the ssd drive.

[@pwnograffik]

Good info 👍 but wow that m2 SSD is slow. That’s about what you would expect from an old SATA 3 SSD.

[@Swatlord60]

Apparently M-2 SATA drive, not M.2 NVME drive!

[@pwnograffik]

@@Swatlord60 Yes, and it’s still slow compared to an old SATA 3 SSD.

[@joknox]

AS SSD Benchmark is known to be unreliable, especially compression benchmark.

[@herbertankrah1283]

i agree with u. i have 2 ssd and use the secondary ssd for my games which makes the system perform well because os drive is always less busy.

[@evildead8434]

Does this apply to the m.2 drive? I've noticed my m.2 is slow when it is supposed to be fast

[@KOrnhOliO1]

Yeah, me too. Gonna try this...

[@kilObit]

yes

[@cauvang1183]

i believe the storage sense feature built into window is responsible for that task

[@GalaxyTracker]

Your video was suggested to me, even though I use Linux. Thank god, because I had forgotten to enable TRIM on my setup!

[@peacefuldeityspath]

Awesome video! my story: Rectify11 + 24H2 Update = huge disaster. i had to reinstall 24H2 and copy games to HDD. ;( and far cry 6 frame times + fps were unstable now i fixed it and disabled intel content protection HDCP. disabled storage sense, intel memory encryption, anti virus. i need every last bit of performance AND thanks for telling me to use the trim command because i forgot to trim in a LONG time. and both drives needed optimization!! haven't run trim in a long time on 2 drives and set auto run to weekly trims.

[@StaticGamerYT]

Idk how my i5 4th Gen Pc with HDD is running windows 11 so clean and smooth

[@user-yl1xy5eg7b]

I run trim once a month. So far no problems.

[@electricblue8196]

333 Days since last Trim on my SSD...what the, supposed to be automatically done.

Great video! This should help a lot of people. 😁👍

What the name of the trim program I missed it😮

How to check the maximum write speed

[@kilObit]

check your SSD specs... you can also use google to find your ssd specs

[@DirtyMikeAndTheBoys74]

I use Samsung magician for my ssd. No issues.

[@MoonHowler340]

Trimming doesn't kill the SSDs earlier than should?

[@KOrnhOliO1]

Good question!

[@kilObit]

no it doesn't

[@masumali4144]

I actually have a laptop with 512 GB storage... And I made two partitions, C drive for OS and other softwares... And D drive to store files.... Is it ok?

[@KOrnhOliO1]

Still the same drive. I don't think that will make it faster.

[@masumali4144]

@@KOrnhOliO1 It's not about being faster, it's about being safe from in case windows gets corrupted.

[@kilObit]

yeah it's ok but it having separate drive is better for speed

[@shauryaaah]

thats a nice game tho, waiting for global release (as i can't play the CN version)

beta is out for global

[@deathdealers9993]

what to do if hdd is at 100%

[@kilObit]

do the same check it's speed and health, if it's fragmented too much optimize it

[@Chikowski101]

Atleast something's trying it's 100%😂

[@KOrnhOliO1]

Never let your HDD get to 100%! The HDD tries to move files around to make programs run more efficiently and optimize how it runs. But when there is no space, at 100%, there's no room for the HDD to move files around and it becomes completely bogged down. First thing to do, move lots of files to another drive. I try to not fill my HDD to 75%. That leaves plenty of space for the HDD to optimize itself. If you take away that space, it has nowhere to optimize itself. It's all clogged up. Once you get many files moved to another HDD, you can defrag the HDD and it will optimize. It will now run more efficiently! 👍

[@KOrnhOliO1]

​@@kilObitcan't optimize well if it's at 100%. Need to move files to another drive so the HDD has room to move files around and get efficient. 100% means it's all clogged up.

[@KOrnhOliO1]

​@@Chikowski101No, 100% means it's plum full. Can't even really try to optimize if it can't move files around because it's completely full. You need space for it to move files around, optimize, and then be efficient again... And much faster.

[@GehMemories]

I heard you mentioning this before, but on my PC, I don't come across this issue (Disk 100%) as you mention. Hmmmm .... how come?

[@kilObit]

you must have faster ssd and TRIM is working for you

[@GehMemories]

@@kilObit Both my SSD and HD disk running at 75 - 90 % capacity. But while checking my read and write speeds of my external backup SSD, I'm wondering why it's write capacity only 26 MB ?

[@KOrnhOliO1]

​@@GehMemoriesDrives are too full to optimize well. The drive needs blank space to fully optimize and become efficient. Move a bunch of files off that drive and on to another. If you only have 2 drives and both are over about 75%, you either need to buy another drive, or you need to delete some of your files that are making both drives over 75% full. Notice when he shows his drives in Windows and how all of them are at about 50% capacity. That's great! The drives have plenty of free space to move files around and optimize themselves and become efficient again. By letting your drives get past about 75%, they no longer have the free space left to optimize fully and become efficient again. Keep drives at less than 75% so they can do that well. 👍

[@GhostGamer3135]

at 0:52 he leaked his e-mail address pls do not spam him im a fan

[@D.von.N]

What makes my Win10 slow, terribly slow, is when it wants to install updates. It literally makes me unable to function until I let it do it. And that after I configured it that I want to manually control downloading updates and their installing, which it reminds me almost every day that there are updates available. It does this slowing down less often now than it did before I configured it this way, but I still notice, from time to tie, the icon in the bottom right corner, that it wants to install and then reboot. Loading a website takes at least half a minute if I don't and everything is very slow. Dictatorship, if you ask me.

[@KOrnhOliO1]

Look at how much space is left on your SSD. If it's over about 75% full, it has very little space to move files around to optimize itself. Never fill your drives up past about 75% full. Notice in this video when he shows his drives with the horizontal bar graph? That bar graph shows how full his drives are. Notice how they are all at about 50%... That's great! The drives have plenty of space to move files around to optimize and get very efficient and much faster. If it is over 75%, then move a bunch of files to another drive to give it room to optimize and move files around, so it's efficient again.

[@D.von.N]

@@KOrnhOliO1 I still have hdd in that machine. I have just over 400GB data on that 1TB disk, plus OS. I had this issue when I had below 300GB data on it, too. But don't worry, it also has nvme and that has Linux. After Win10 losts support I'll swap hdd for 4TB ssd sata for storage. I have already converted one ex Win11 laptop to LMDE and another ancient ex vista one to Wilma. Done with the MS shenanigans. Win11 will be only running from a usb if absolutely necessary.
