@Gilles Schintgen   
It's actually about spin down. 
I already proved ( 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+bug/59695/comments/78 ) 
that hdparm is invoked with -S 4 which translates (see hdparm manpage)  in "Set 
the *spindown* timeout for the drive to 20 seconds".
This is the real problem and it's not caused by the drive firmware or the 
computer's BIOS. It's the operating system's scripts that call hdparm to set 
unrealistic spindown times.
