Hello,
I added an SSD in my system and moved the root filesystem to the SSD

Sometimes though something is accessing data on the disk drives,
which I do
not understand.
Did you relocate swap to the SSD?
According to some information on the various lists, you should *not* run
swap on
a SSD, because the SSD has a limited number of read/write cycles, and
swap uses
them up way too quickly. I guess you could use a second ssd for swap and
when it
died, throw it out and replace it.
