Ever since I finished upgrading my laptop to an 80GB hard drive from a 
40GB drive a couple of months ago, I have the weird circumstance where 
the light which indicates HDD activity will come on and stay on solid 
until I do something which requires access to the drive, at which time 
the light will flicker during the access and go out after the access is 
completed. It will then stay off for a while if no further activity, 
then come on solid again until further disk activity.

Anyone have a clue as to what could be happening? Is there some utility 
that can monitor disk access so I can see whether maybe something 
unsuspected is really accessing the drive?
