Some newer cases are coming out without a disk activity light, and I hate it.
That light is by far the quickest, simplest, easiest way of judging whether a computer is actively doing something. I can just look at it for a second and know! This is even more important now, since SSDs don't make any sounds.
Contrast anything else, say Task Manager, which even if I leave it minimized in the notification area I would still first need to wake up the monitor and/or unlock the computer. That's at least several seconds just so I can check if it's doing something.
I want my disk activity light back, damnit. KISS is a virtue.
