I remember I read that article two days after the notebook had arrived.
Its Linux support was really poor, even with it having Satux Linux (a
really bad distribution). It had much more problems which quickly were
corrected, but this one is one of the most persistent issues (tied with
the wireless problem we're nearly solving).

>From what I researched back then ( 
>https://access.redhat.com/documentation/pt-br/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/html/power_management_guide/alpm
> ), these SATA LPM options are changed by the following commands on this 
>notebook:
echo 'min_power' > '/sys/class/scsi_host/host0/link_power_management_policy'
echo 'min_power' > '/sys/class/scsi_host/host1/link_power_management_policy'

And they work. As the powertop proposed changes were effective back then
to enable Package C3 and now Package C8, I've done a systemd service to
enable them on boot.

Only USB ports and the PCI Audio device aren't with its powersave modes,
as setting them to save more power make problems start to appear.
