Solution: I simply deleted Intel RST software and everything including the random BSODs that I didn't mention here is solved after 2.5 years.

I've this situation for like 2.5 years and I can't bear it anymore.

As I've told above, upon starting the OS, HDD usage is 100%. I randomly terminate the programs that are using the highest portion of disk resources, right away some new random program takes place and uses high percentages of the disk resources again. And this continues no matter how hard I try, so there's no specific program that causes it - I suppose. The startup lasts 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, when I execute a random program, it also takes forever to load in the first attempt.

I've been debating for 2.5 years to reinstall the OS but I have arounds 800GB of data that I'd not want them to be deleted. I don't have this problem on Ubuntu or Slax. Everything works as expected.

Since Ubuntu works perfectly, I was wondering that if it's more likely that I have a faulty W10 instead of a faulty Hard Drive.

Please help!

This behavior is absolutely abnormal. Here are some suggestions:

  • Check the Event Viewer for useful errors or warnings
  • Run chkdsk
  • Check S.M.A.R.T. data of the disk using a utility such as Speccy
  • Run sfc /scannow
  • Use Process Explorer to examine what these processes are doing
  • If you think you might be infected, run a few deep scans by well-known anti-virus products. See also this post.
