System randomly freezes when copying large files or playing games.

[JFlor22]

Hi, I have been using my 32GB Intel Optane Module for a while now. I have been able to accelerate the boot process and some of my apps, but every time I copy a large file my system tends to halt and is very unresponsive. Games also freezes from time to time. This has not happened before without the Optane Module. So I suspect the module is doing this.

My system:

HDD: 4TB Seagate HDD (System) <- Optane accelerated

CPU: i5 8400

RAM: 2 x 8GB DDR4 Kingston HyperX 2666

MOBO: MSI B360M Mortar Titanium

Any kind of feedback helps. Thanks!
