The DVDs are connected to SATA ports. It's very (only) noticeable here because none of the devices connected to the on-board SATA cotrollers is mounted or otherwise in use by anything I'm doing/running. I'm not running gnome, just an X-session started with startx and i3 as WM, and yet the light constantly flashes like once a second. I can't see anything in the output of PS that would indicate what is making the light flash.
