I've used plenty of USB drives WD, Seagate and have not had this issue. Yes the light stays on when connected but only flashes when in use. It sounds to me, that something is accessing the disk. 1) Install nmon (sudo apt-get install -y nmon) then #nmon. Press D. With the RPi idle check the output on /dev/sdyxx. Where y is your external drive. If there is activity, then check "top" for any process that is using /dev/sdyxx If nothing, install iotop and check the output. I've a feeling it is an addon that is causing the problem - if there is one BTW: What external HDD are you using?
