I have a Fedora Core 1 system which is generating disk activity every 5 seconds or so, even when it should be idle. (The hard drive light flashes, then there's a quiet whir followed by a "chuck" -- presumably the drive spinning up and then engaging.) If I quit GNOME this activity goes away. Is this normal? Is there any way to stop it (it can't be good for the drive)?
