I've noticed a disk that has 100% of active time but 0 KB/s of read speed and 0 KB/s of write speed according to Windows Task Manager:

enter image description here

How is it possible that a disk has 100% of active time but 0 KB/s of read speed and 0 KB/s of write speed?

I found https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/windows-10-active-time-100-read-speed-0-kbs-write/39662b64-cd99-485f-9a9e-b57280c501b0 that mentions perhaps some program is thrashing the disk, but wouldn't thrashing cause the read speed or the write speed to be higher than 0 KB/s?
