I'm having similar issue on my WD disk -------------------------- hddtemp /dev/sda /dev/sda: WDC WD3200BEKT-60V5T1: 55°C --------------------------
The temperature in Ubuntu varies between 51°C to 55°C when power supply is ON to laptop. The temperature decreases to 44°C while running on battery. The bug is present on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, 13.04 and 13.10 Ubuntu, Kubuntu versions. Surprisingly the bug is still present after so many years! On the same laptop Windows 7 runs quite cool at around temperature of 40°C to 44°C. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/374121 Title: acpi-support 0.121 causes ~+10c increase in HD temp.
