Seriously, what can that be other than the drive spinning up and down. Noisy fans - doubt it.
My laptop is SSD (+HD for storage) as well but I do still have a desktop, two drives.
Does your Debian installation have any utilities for monitoring disk activity.
This is PClinuxOS + a desktop widget.

That is root + home partitions. If the disk activity does not tail off, but cycles, in sync with the noise then look at that info I posted on WD drives.
The WD drive I have installed there is for data. SMART says the temperature is 25⁰C Your drive reports 66⁰C, that has to be a concern. Going to fail sooner rather than later.
