Laptop constantly writing to disk

Alienware 17 running Windows 10 Home. Works fine, but the thing is CONSTANTLY writing to the disk. I know this is way too imprecise to give me a definitive answer, but I fired up the resource monitor and the "system NT Kernel and System" process writes to dozens of files constantly...

It's been on for over 4 hours and it's STILL writing constantly. Almost no reading...

I have NOTHING running other than the stuff that starts with Windows, and VERY little of that since the Startup section of the task manager has pretty much every disabled. I even turned OFF wi-fi so it COULDN'T do anything stupid over the metered connection and it STILL sat there writing constantly

I can't imagine that this is normal and I"m wondering how to figure out what to do next. Ideas?

Gracie,

Can you identify which files it is writing to? It may help us narrow down the problem, if there is one.

Well, I've been using the laptop since I wrote the original post. And it's continued churning its brains out for the entire time. Slowing down image processing and generally being a pain in my *ss.

I have NOT made any significant changes, not even any MINOR changes in a while - OTHER than MS shoving that $%^YU*&^% update onto the laptop a couple weeks ago. I suspect its been crap ever since.....

No music albums. No Groove. No Skype. No Google Chrome.

CURRENTLY, the thing is beating its brains out on edb.log and its neighbors. As near as I can tell, edb is supposed to have something to do with indexing, which I SHOULDN'T even be doing as far as I know.

I have windows search turned off. I have DISABLED the Windows Search service. I have checked the indexing and UNCHECKED EVERYTHING. As far as I know, NOTHING should be getting indexed.

I'm not sure where the RAID came up - this is a laptop. Normal, ordinary, boring Alienware laptop. Has a 256GB SSD for the primary drive and a 1TB HDD for image data.

Images are NOT indexed for Photos or any other application except Lightroom. That's where they're managed.

I"ve never changed the page file. The only virtual memory there, is 2432MB that's system managed on the C drive, and has been since day 1.

I"ve got a snip of the resource manager, so here it is:
Attachment 132830

Worst case, I'll do what I had to do to the OTHER laptop after the "creator" updated - blow the whole thing away and start over installing Windows. Which will greatly p*ss me off, but I have to have this thing working 'cause it has actual WORK to do...

I can try downloading Hard Disk Sentinel when I get home and see if it says anything useful.

Still hoping somebody has an idea 'cause I do NOT want to have to rebuild thing thing...

OK, I put in the second system - the laptop.



This is right after a clean boot. This is what it looks like 20 seconds after booting. And it'll just sit there and churn indefinitely.

Here's the resource monitor



Just sitting there writing to edb.log

Here's what Hard Disk Sentinel says, though it doesn't appear to know what the SSD is...
