Over the past few weeks I have found that after undertaking tasks, I find that all my files freeze and then have to wait two or three minutes before I can continue working on them. I have Windows 11 and mainly work on a ssd external 6tB hard drive. I just do not know what to do. Any help would be much appreciated.
This could be a hardware problem. Check the port, the cable, the controller, and the SSD type.
