Apr 5, 2017 at 10:10 comment added BowPark @pakman Yes, I solved. There were two processes that are well-known to produce such an amount of activity on Ubuntu. If I remember correctly, one of them is gvfsd-metadata and the other one has a similar name (anyway, I'm not sure about the names: try googling to get more details about them). They continuously explore the filesystem to collect information about files: if they are not necessary for your systems, there is a way to disable their execution.
