Show disk activity in Gnome panel

[mojo2012]

Hi guys,

I'm looking for an applet that shows the harddisk activity in the Gnome panel. The important part here is, that it should not show infos like MB/s or percentages or whatsoever, but I just want to have some kind of LEDs that blink when reading/writing.

On Mac OS X I use a program called MenuMeters that adds two blinking LEDs (red for writing, green for reading) to the menubar (look at the screenshot).

For Gnome I just found some applets that are able to show CPU usage, temperature etc ... But none of them have an option to just show a "LED".

Maybe someone of you know such a program I'm looking for.

Didn't read properly.

There are thousands of panel applets out there, and nobody knows of such a simple thing?

Could it be that this is too simple
