    SSD Folder Randomly Opening


    So I just put together this new machine and for some reason Explorer keeps opening to one of my SSDs seemingly at random. The SSD is an OCZ Vertex4 256GB and the only thing it's used for is as a scratch drive for Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop CS6. This happens even when those programs aren't running. Hot plug is disabled in the BIOS for all of my drives and this is plugged into the ASMedia SATA port because my 2 other open Intel ports are taken by my Samsung 850 Evos and having my NVME drive plugged in where it is disables the other 4 Intel SATA ports. The latest Intel INF, Intel Rapid Storage drivers and ASMedia drivers from Gigabyte's website are installed. Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this drive to pop up all the time?

    It might be going to sleep mode and on any activity would wake up. You can test this theory by going to your Power plan > advanced and set disk drives sleep time to never.
