Hi!...I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 installed on a Western Digital Scorpio hard drive, model WD2500BEVE. I don't have problems with the load/unload cycle count (it increases but at a slow pace) but the temperature goes up and up...until I shut down the machine voluntarily usually in the 52º C. This behavior occurs even not demanding lot of hd activity, like using only Pidgin and Chromium. Using windows xp the temperature doesn't reach more than 47 ºC when demanding full use as for example doing a disk "defrag", naturally it remains in between the 30ºC and 40ºC . If there's a way this problem can be solved I would very pleased, as I can't use Ubuntu more than 50 minutes without having to turn off and wait for a hard drive cool. Please let me know if I can post more useful information, and sorry about my bad english, it's not my natural tongue. Luis
