Explanation

The issue described indicates that performance degradation occurs specifically when accessing large images, while small text files do not cause the same problem. This suggests a problem related to handling large files or data throughput. HDD fragmentation is a common issue that can cause performance problems with large files, as fragmented files take longer to read and write. This issue would not typically affect the performance of small text files in the same way.
