Hi,
I'm currently writing a project in C using djgpp that runs in DOS and hopefully soon in FreeDOS. I notice that hard disk access is poor (noisy and frantic, as it is when booting into Windows safe mode).

you could try how your project behaves on a ramdrive.
* MS RAMDRIVE.SYS,
* XMSDSK
* TDSK
* SRDISK
* SHSURDRV

Is disk access better under FreeDOS than MS-DOS, and are there any decent drivers or config tweaks you could point me toward, please? As a newbie, any hints and tips would be greatly appreciated.

a diskcache might work, like SMARTDRV or LBACACHE.
