Quick update on the above: I defragmented my hard drive last night, and it appears to be a little better than before, but I'm still seeing 100% spikes on mount.ntfs coupled with windows / the entire OS freezing for a few minutes at a time (I got the most recent one installing updates and buffering a YouTube video at the same time).
