Hello,
I need some help with an issue I recognized since I have migrated my RasPi 3B from running with a microSD to a system running from a SSD.
I migrated the RasPi and all works fine so far. The short migration path has been, that I added the following lines to the end of /boot/config.txt in tha ALL-section
program_usb_boot_mode=1
program_usb_timeout=1
dtparam=sd_poll_once
Then I powered it off (sudo shutdown -h now), copied an image from the microSD to a SSD (WDS250G1B0A) which is connected then to the USB-Port of the RasPi and after powering the device on it runs (now for three days).
The Raspi is used with InfluxDB, Node-Red, Moswuitto and grafana to monitor two tasmota based sockets (Nuos 1AT, reporting every 5 Minutes) and temperature + frequency of the Raspi itself (also every 5 Minutes).
The SSD is stored in an external case that has an acivity LED and I recognized an drive activity every 5-6 seconds wich has not been reported by the build-in activity LED of the Raspi as long as it runs from microSD. Therefore I checked with iotop for the reason and found:
$ iotop
TID PRIO USER DISK READ DISK WRITE SWAPIN IO> COMMAND
582 ?sys influxdb 0.00 B/s 19.26 K/s ?unavailable? influxd -config /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf
Now my question is, what can I do to reduce these operations as I don’t think they are needed (cause I have not seen them before switched from microSD to SSD) and I believe it will damage the SSD in a shorter time.
I tried to find solutions by myself but have not found helpful information although I am pretty sure that I am not the first human being facing this issue 
Furthermore I try to provide any helpful details that might help to analyze the issue but I will give more details if needed of course. I have only very basic Linux-skills an my skills in InfluxDB, Red-Node, Mosquitto and grafana are about to 14 days now 
Just to have it said.
Thanks in advance for your time and help!
The RasPi is running as a headless system in my own home-network where I am the only user. Here are some more details:
$ cat /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/model

$ hostnamectl
Static hostname: IOT_01

$ influxd version

And this is the shortened influxdb.conf I use (I cut the comment-lines):
