I have a Mandrake 9 box. Turn it on and after a week or so of running the hard disk access light seems to stay almost constantly on. This will continue for about a week and then stop back to normal ie very low activity. Give it another week or two and then another week or so of hard access again. If I reboot the box (ah windows training) the access is normal till a week or so and then heavy access all over again.
I currently have no clue of where to start looking for what is causing this. It is not access from the internet or myself or others. Any pointers as to where to start (to help my Linux learning) would be greatly appreciated!
