OneDrive FoD shouldn't be constantly syncing. The whole idea is that it syncs when you open them, not as one whole job. Unless you've specifically told it to make the library always available.
Have you got any of the bandwidth restriction GPOs applied? It sounds like it is syncing a whole library.
With the latest OneDrive, you can specify libraries to always be online-only meaning it will never sync. I've found this useful for large collaboration areas where versioning may become an issue should people make changes offline etc that then conflict with online users changes.

We have the latest client, we are syncing the entire library site for authorized users with FoD, they don't have large SSD's. I have done this thousands of times and for some reason it will not stop trying to sync.
There must be some, non-apparent cause cascade failure occurring that maxes out activity of the disk . Rhys Williams
