Why does my hard drive keep chattering while Firefox is open? How do I stop it?
I have nonstop I/O activity while Firefox is open ... when I close the browser it stops.
I have tried a refresh, but it did not resolve the issue.

Firefox writes to the disk often, but it should not be a bother.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).
Is the problem still there?
When is the last time you defragged your hard drive?
I tried this, but it made no difference. I also ran both an anti-virus program and an anti-malware program with no issues.
I checked last week, and my hard drive had very little fragmentation.
