SMARTDRV 4.0 weirdness

While working happily along with the new smartdrv windows supplies with
win 3.1 I occasionally here hard disk activity while the machine is idle.
This wouldn't bother me except for the fact that whenever I go to access
the hard disk while this "hidden" activity is occurring I get a general
read failure from the drive.  Also the hard disk activity light doesn't
seem to light up while this hidden access is occuring.  

Any clues anyone?
