I just received and assembled my Apple ][GS last night.  When I booted
the included system disk (It is called version 4), loaded GS/OS and
the finder I noticed that while the finder was sitting idle, there was
a constant tic, tic, tic sound from the internal speaker.

Later after I added the 5.25" disk driver to the system and rebooted,
I noticed that the "in-use" light on the 5.25" drive would blink on
and off with the ticking.  

Is this normal behavior?  Why does the system do this?
