I found out the cause, hdparm is not the culprit. /usr/lib/pm-
utils/power.d/harddrive from pm-utils sets most aggressive power saving
defaults; my harddrive seems to interpret the spindown setting as a
shorter duration than intended (30 s).

Marking invalid, opening new bug for pm-utils as applicable.

** Changed in: hdparm (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
