Maybe try a little harder to ID the process causing the wakeup? Have
you tried looking for blocked processes at the moment you hear the
drive start to spin up? Look for processes in D state at the time the
drive is spinning up.

With option commit=50 in the ext4 partitions I was able to reduce jbd2
IO frequency. But the disk keeps spinning on/off with a frequency of
around 10 s.
So jdb2 (which was also a problem for Arch Linux users, saw it in a post
from 2011) is not the culprit.

I tried lm-monitor on my server and got:
Write frequency :

Thank you for your reply,
a lot of people trying to help me guess I need to fix my green WD
drive. The drive is ok, does exactly what it should do and what it must
do regarding an EU Regulation for external drives.
It does not happen for Linux in general.
It happens for my Ubuntu install, not fo
Thank you,
unfortunately it doesn't help.

Hi,
Have you looked into lm-profiler(http://linux.die.net/man/8/lm-profiler) to
hopefully catch what is waking up the drive? See section 5 "Spinup Debugging"
at http://samwel.tk/laptop_mode/faq
I recall using that, back when I tried to optimise battery time on my laptop.
Best regards,
Michael

I believe this is a "known" issue with WD Green drives. There are a few
workarounds for this, for example:

I'm not sure if I understood your issue correctly, but I also have a
server with a mechanical disk which periodically spins, don't know why.
There are tools like powertop or so, but I guess you already tried that.
I think I also did and it didn't help.
Maybe try Linux (kernel) IRC channel?

Any ideas how to file a bug against unknown buggy software, or perhaps
a bad unknown Ubuntu specific configuration?
A bug report is useless, since I don't know what package does cause the
issue.
