Hello,

I have found a reason.

I use check_mk_agent with mk_apt plugin: https://mathias-
kettner.de/cms_check_apt.html

I ignored recommendation of the check-mk developers and installed the plugin 
without any interval:
It is recommended to install this plugin with asynchronous execution and at an 
interval with at least one hour. 

As result, apt-get update -qq 2> /dev/null command ran every minute on
my PC. I am not sure, but most likely this was trigger for update-
notifier write a lot of data to disk.

I added interval for mk_apt plugin and currently all OK. less than 10 MB
during 3h.

Thanks for your support!

Have a nice week!
