Response to Saivann Carignan : the exact value is 870009
I noticed that the rate was around 1 per minute before stopping it by
editiing hdparm.conf.
Checking : the laptop was bought beginning of 2006. It is always up or
so. 870009 at the rate of 1 per minute (1140 per day) means an uptime of
600
I confirm on 2 DELL laptops, the 1st one 18 months old with
Load_Cycle_Count around 90, the 2nd one 1 month old with 25000. I
just applied the hdparm.conf workaround as explained several time above.
This issue in "Wishlist" is inapproprate. It should be considered as
"high" or "critical".
