A power cycle might help, but also offloading the hard drive since it might be close to full. If you have games that you can delete then try that or re-download them to your external hard drive. You can also try getting an SSD and downloading your most
played games there, and it might cut down on the loading times.

Sometimes this happens because your console hasn't had a hard reset or Power Cycle in sometime. Doing this can help resolve the issue. Xbox provides step by step instructions you can find here on how to

Power Cycle your Xbox.

Hope this helps.
