Hi all,

I'm still playing with my WD Hard Drive WD10EADS (Caviar Green 1TB):

=== START OF INFORMATION SECTION ===
Device Model:     WDC WD10EADS-00M2B0
Serial Number:    WD-WCAV51538624
Firmware Version: 01.00A01
User Capacity:    1,000,204,886,016 bytes
Device is: Not in smartctl database [for details use: -P showall]
ATA Version is:   8
ATA Standard is:  Exact ATA specification draft version not indicated
Local Time is:    Thu Nov 26 18:50:44 2009 CET
SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability.
SMART support is: Enabled


I'm trying to configure smartctl so that it won't wake the HD up for testing, using "-n standby":

/dev/ad6 -H -m root -a -n standby -o on -S on -s (S/../.././02| L/../../6/03)

But smartd won't accept:

smartd[94230]: Device: /dev/ad6, no ATA CHECK POWER STATUS support, ignoring -n Directive

I just don't know why. Is it:

- the HD that doesn't support ata check power status?
- the FreeBSD ata driver?
- smartd that is too old for this new HD?

regards,
patpro
