Similar problem at Compaq Presario C300 with HDD WD800BEVS-60LAT0. HDD is warmer then on win XP about 7 centigrades on ubuntu (9.04 i 9.10), and on openSuse 11.2 , Load/Unload Cycle goes up with similar rate ( 20 per hour or less) at default settings. If i change them with hdparm -B 253 Load/Unload Cycle skyrockets (150 per hour) but temperature goes down only 2-3 centigrades, and it is still higher 4-5 centigrades then on XP. Other lower then 253 settings with hdparm -b don't change anything. Temperature on idle on win XP 39, on Linux 46, under heavy load on XP 43 and on ubuntu and suse 50.
It seams like WD Scorpio problem with Linux, I don't know how other drives behave. -- HDD unusual high temperature and activity in Ubuntu Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394826 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
