SSD frezzes in Windows 10 with 100% active time 0 read 0 write 0 responses time

My new Kingston SSD is freezing a lot on Windows 10. I have used more than app to check the SSD and all give me that the SSD is 100% healthy and everything is OK, but I check the Task Manager when the lap freezes it shows that the disk is 100% active 0 read 0 write 0 responses time

What I have tried so far:

Disabling the Page file for C:.
Running System File Checker /SFC with administrative privileges.
Disabling several services: Windows Search and Superfetch and prefetch
Checked SMART status of SSD using Kingston SSD Toolbox.
Updated Windows using Windows Update.
reinstalling Windows
secure erase the SSD
contact Kingston for help
checking TRIM is enabled
check the AHCI driver
updating all drivers
scan for virus and malware

Any new ideas?

I hit the same problem and done almost everything you described, nothing helped. Finally I've found cause and solution. It was a problem with Kingston SSD firmware. Try updating firmware with Kingston SSD Manager. Restart after update. Worked for me.

This has been the best improvement I've had, FYI I had to run the SSD as slave (OS in a different drive) to be able to run this. I've been stressing the drive for testing purposes and not a single freeze. – porfiriopartida – 2019-03-27T06:59:29.913
