1.2.1 cause frequent hard disk writing

I updated my foobar2k to 1.2.1, my OS is win8 x64 and two hard disk: SSD (where foobar2k is installed)、general hard disk(where songs is stored), then question is : everytime when the foobar2k is playbacking songs, the OS' s system process begins keeping writing the SSD(1M/s). but after quiting the foobar2k, writing stops.
