Just to add my 2 cents worth, I'm concerned that there are a class of "green" drives out there on the market where hdparm -B 255 is the only way to ensure they don't excessively impact the Load_Cycle_Count, for example:
WD20EADS, WD20EARS, WD15EADS, WD15EARS, WD10EADS, WD10EARS, WD8000AARS, WD7500AADS, WD7500AARS, WD6400AADS, WD6400AARS, WD5000AADS, WD5000AARS References: http://www.silentpcreview.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=51401 http://wdc.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5357 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/952556 Title: [Precise] [Hardware-killer] HD restarts every few seconds To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hdparm/+bug/952556/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
