Sorry Darryl I was off the studio so I could not get a clear info !

Now it appears that I made a mistake about my external SSD. Really sorry,

It is a WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSD 1To (I was completely off) (560mb/s read and 530mb/s write).
Although those CPU Spikes happened with my previous external HDD too (a 7200 rpm HDD).

Sorry for "Time Capsule" thing too haha.

Well your explanation are spot on and thanks a lot of this !
It seems a lot of things to do just to check if Pro Tools is acting normally, regarding the fact that all the other DAWs I got work flawlessly. But I need Pro Tools so whatever it takes...

I will try that asap, I have 2 HDD backups for this, I'll need to buy a cheap SSD too.
