I am so used to listen to HDDs, FDDs, optical drives and other mechanical storage that these days i wish phones and tablets with solid state storage would come with a small drive activity light or ui element.
In particular as Android (at least all the versions i have interacted with) tends to "lock up" during heavy IO activity (i find Firefox to be particularly adept at triggering this for some reason), something i have come to believe is a deeply embedded behavior characteristic of the Linux kernel.
And yes i live and die by the boot scroll, and hate any and all efforts to hide these things away under the "user friendly" banner.
