Disk tools could be useful, but I don't recall them being the first choice for performance degradation. Resource Monitor seems like a better fit.

I think Computer Management might give some insights, but it seems more general. Resource Monitor feels more targeted for this issue.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like Reliability History is more about crashes and errors, not just slow performance.
