I believe so, as my Load Cycle Count still increments fairly quickly
when let.  Though as long as you have options ATA_CAM
(it appears to be in GENERIC, so you should, I suppose) you
can also use variations on:
/sbin/camcontrol cmd ada0 -a EF 85 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
to shut off naps  such as well.

Hi list.

I am currently running FreeBSD 9.1-PRERELEASE on my laptop. And I am
wondering if I still need to use sysutiles/ataidle to avoid high Load
Cyle Count for my hard drive. Is there still a need to run this utility
to avoid LCC under FreeBSD 9.1-PRERELEASE?

Thanks for your attention!
