This patch restores the behavior from previous Ubuntu releases. Unfortunately, there are definitely some newer, "green" drives that behave poorly even with the previous behavior. This isn't something that can be fixed with a general-purpose SRU, because there currently is no single setting that's appropriate for all users. The only thing I can advise is that you set your apm_battery value even higher - possibly even to 254 - if you're concerned about the wear on the drive. -- 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
