Guys, I don't want to jinx it but... about 5 hours ago I installed Ubuntu 12.04 alpha 2 on my laptop (WD2500BEVT hdd) and, without further configuring it (no changes to apm or anything like that) it WORKS. Just WORKS. The temperature stays at 45'C and the load_cycle_count didn't increase even by one for these 5 hours! I'm shocked. I have no idea what's going on. Now I'm moving to Ubuntu as my primary OS. Whoever contributed to this - thank you.
