Windows app to show hard disk activity ?

[Dodsy]

I have a new work laptop and Dell in their wisdom have hidden the disk activity light on the front where I cant see it. It takes about 10 minutes to fire up and if I try to use it before then it just causes issues, runs slowly and can crash.

With my old laptop I just waited until the disk stopped thrashing then knew it was ready for use but on this new one I cant see the light.

Does anyone know of a Windows 7 app that will put a hard disk icon on the screen or toolbar that mirrors the light ?

I already have soluto, doesnt help its just a cheap laptop and it grinds along in its own time. Resource monitor I could use but I really need something on the screen all the time so I know when its gone into meltdown and its time to go and have a coffee while it sorts itself out

ETA I installed that widget and its perfect thanks :-) PH to the rescue again!
