GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 147613
Hard disk activity
Last modified: 2011-11-11 10:03:55 UTC
Just as there are CPU, RAM, network, swap space, and load average indicators for the Gnome Panel, I want to suggest the addition of a hard disk activity indicator. Especially for people not using their Gnome desktop immediately next to the computer chassis, thanks to the multi-user power of Linux, it's convenient and helpful to see how busy the disks are and what's going on.
