i'd implement using timertask. e.g.,

int hour = 1000*60*60; int delay = 0; timer t = new timer();  t.scheduleatfixedrate(new timertask() {     public void run() {         // write disk ...     } }, delay, hour); 

otherwise quarts powerful java scheduler capable of handling more advanced scheduling needs.
