Is there any way to limit DISK usage available to programs?

Hello.

I have a relatively strong PC that shouldn't struggle with the most basic tasks (32GB ram, SSD, etc). Sadly, I was suggested to purchase Crucial BX480 SSD, so thats my Windows 10 drive.

Whenever a new update rolled out for my Windows, the system always took 100% of Disk usage, making the PC basically unusable untill it finished updating. I tried disabling updates using several methods, but they always wiggled themselves back.

After the updates finished, somehow, Windows still manages to update something, or Office is updating something, or AV does something, and whenever such thing happens, the PC is unusable for a bit, untill the process finishes.

SSD was supposed to be way above any of such problems, but somehow, mine isn't. To make matters worse, if the DISK worked at 80% instead of throttling itself at 100%, the whole proces would take fraction of the time it really takes.

Is there any way to limit usage of programs to like 80%, so that atleast 20% of it stays available, preventing it from throttling itself? Or do you think either my hardware or software is set up incorrectly?

I appreciate all suggestions!

Gut vs Scavenge charm

Hi.

I was wondering which is better for farming Albino dragon.

Before the update, there was no need to even consider gut, as scavenge charm increased the skin chance by 25% making one in 4 dragons a succesfull skin.

Now, however, the story changed by a lot.

We obviously don't have a precise stats about drop chance, but as a drop, the leather is in rare category so its 1-0.5% according to wiki. Skin chance seems to be quite rare aswell, so I am placing it at around 5%, although I might be wrong and it could be 1%.

3rd level of scavenge charm increases the chance of skinning by 120% making the succesfull skin chance 11% out of the guessed 5% or 2.2% for 1%.

3rd level of gut charm yields 12% more creature products. You can also couple that with loot pray. According to wiki, it would seem that it rolls for an extra loot chance with that %, but wouldn't that mean that it realistically only increases the drop chance by like a fraction of a percent, instead of 12%? That would make this charm pretty much useless for every rare drop chance creature product.
