I'm so tired....

Besides scandisk or chkdisk, how about defragging the poor drive once in a while ! I highly recommend Ultimate Defrag (payware) https://www.disktrix.com/, but Defraggler from Piriform (freeware) https://www.piriform.com/defraggler, works well too.
It makes a world of difference.

Personally, I use CCleaner and defrag the drives using the free version of Wise Care 365 -- about every 2 weeks. Never got a marked difference in reduced loading times until I tried Mr. Spin's tip.
