The system process can be thought of as a special type of process that hosts threads that run only in kernel mode. Its associated file name is ntoskrnl.exe and it is located in the C://Windows//System32// folder. It is responsible for various system services such as hardware abstraction, process and memory management, etc.
Sometimes the system process may show high disk or CPU usage for a few minutes. This is temporary and should not cause you concern. But if the problem persists frequently, you may need to look into a few things.
