If it is really the hard drive, it is probably rsyslogd doing something with the log files. When you are logged in, the CD/DVD drive is also checked to see if there is a disk in the drive. This will also light the HDD light in most systems.
I forgot to add that I disabled hal polling on /dev/sr0. I guess the beeping could be the dvd drive, but that would mean that hal is broken, which isn't that unlikely.
I performed an ls -lrt /var/log and the last touched file was wtmp over two minutes ago. messages hadn't been written to in 15 minutes.
