Ocassionaly frequent load-unload cycles happens under Oneiric 11.10 Beta 1
usually when watching youtube.
This happened from 10.04 and up on every ubuntu distro. 10.04 clearly tried to
kill my hard drive, fortunately the never versions are less cruel :) As I know
there still isn't a 100% workaround for my hdd.
I'm using a NEC Versa one laptop without ( ACPI=off ) with the hdd
