My PC was painfully slow until I fixed this one SSD problem

I’ve dealt with some slow PCs in my life. At an old job a decade ago, the PCs were so slow that you could quite literally boot the PC, go away for 20 minutes, and come back with it finally ready to be used. But these days, SSDs have thankfully largely eradicated that sluggishness. That is why I instantly knew something was wrong when a ‘new’ computer was taking forever to reach the desktop.
