Ok, as I sit here on my T42 Thinkpad running on battery and a fully up to date version of Maverick Alpha 3 and listen to my hard drive spin up and down so often it rarely actually FINISHES spinning DOWN before spooling back UP, I'm going to chime in and say the settings are way, way, WAY too aggressive.
This MAY be a stupid question, but couldn't we let the user change the spin-down times for ac AND battery instead of(including?) simply providing a yes or no check box to allow spin down in Gnome? Failing that, what config file/script needs to be edited in maverik in order to tone down the settings manually. I don't want the hdparm settings "solution" as that doesn't stick across reboots.
