What is your computer spec. ?
Is this in a single part or are you working in a big assembly?

It sounds like you don't have enough memory in the computer and its using the hard disc virtual memory, hence the disc activity.

Where would we be without sat-nav?
 
It is a big assembly but if I try to do it in part it has no difference. It might be something with live rules. Even if I suspend live rules takes long time to add the hole or move something. can I turn live rules off.
 
Sorry, I never used sync mode so I've no idea what it could be, but post your computer spec just in case.

Sorry for the delay in replying - been really busy.
Your computer spec sound OK although I'm not sure about using a GeForce graphics card.
This isn't a card preferred for CAD so it could make a difference.
Other than that I can't really help.
Sorry.
