Inconsistent internal HDD data transfer speed

Hello,

I'm getting inconsistent internal HDD data transfer speeds. The speeds go up and down and sometime pauses at 0 mb/s for a few seconds.

Never seen this before.

Using Windows 11. I actually have a X670e motherboard. It was happening on this board and I thought it was the board at first. swap to another new board (but same board), problems persist. I have multiple internal HDD, and the issue is not isolated to a specific HDD.

Installed new Corsair Dominator RAM and the cpu is new with the Ryzen 9 7900x.

I'm thinking its probably something I need to troubleshoot in Windows 11. Thoughts? Thank you!

    Hi BusinessBill,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    This question seems strange. Have you installed any updates on your computer recently? At this time we have received no known issues with inconsistent disk transfer speeds.

    About how the hardware behaves in Windows,

    The best place to get help with hardware performance is Microsoft Learn(English only), which aims to support more advanced users like you.

    Here is a link to the forum where you can raise specific scenarios and share your idea to help solve the problem.

    I won't be able to help you, but I'll leave that question open in case one of our amazing volunteers has ideas for you.

    Thank you for your understanding and patience!

    Best Regards,
