My PC is set up as follows:

C drive is a SSD with Windows 7
D drive is 3 TB 7200 RPM where I install all my software etc.

What used to happen, when I click on a program it started straight away. Same when I opened a file from Windows explorer, same when I clicked to open an email. Now what is happening, when I click on any of these, they no longer open straight away, instead my drive D starts running and HDD light comes on. It takes some time before things open up. It is as if everything was on drive D and Windows is searching for what I'm trying to open.

Never used to be like this, Any ideas?
