I confirm this bug for SATA2 disk!
My hddtemp version is 0.3-beta15.
I've tried with two pcs, one with Debian Etch and a IDE disk, when a drive is
sleeping if I try to get the temperature hddtemp returns correctly: "/dev/hda:
ST3500630A: drive is sleeping".
The other pc has Ubuntu Hardy and a SAT
I can confirm this. I nearly went out of my mind trying to figure out
why my unmounted ide disk kept waking up after hdparm -y (Bug #180986)
until i finally found this. It appears to poll anywhere between 2
seconds and one minute.
