Comment 102 for bug 607560

I just want to confirm comment #94 of Vladimir Kononov (voldemark). After fsck on my disk drives (/ and /home) on a quite long time running (+1year) desktop install of debian mint on an old laptop the issue of high harddisk load seems to be minimized and system runs much more smoothly now.

So, please do fsck on your disks and update whether or not it solves the issue.
