Maxed out storage storage device usage
A bit of an update to my last question posted in late July (https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-hardware/disk-usage-maxed-on-maxone-drive/1a0389b4-24b2-4e26-a173-6adf7791d02d read this for more details), I've tried everything I can think of, short of opening the drive itself, nothing has really worked. To tell you what's happening, number 1, I don't know where else to post this. Number 2, the drive freezes for a long time, sometimes even crashing explorer if I open a folder or a file in the drive. Even if steam interacts with it it'll freeze. I just wanted to make a sort of repost almost two months later to see if anyone can figure this one out.
Also, I now know the spike at the start when I plug the drive in is normal.

My name is Igor, it's a pleasure for me to help others and I'll do all my best to help you.
The first picture in the original topic says there can be some hardware problems.
Please check drive's health with third-party CrystalDiskInfo tool and show tool's entire window.
