I have an IBM T23 Laptop with the latest Bios October 2006
Harddrive: Seagate Momentus ST92811A 20GB 5400 RPM ATA-6
My sudo smartctl -d ata -a /dev/sda|grep Hours and even on Battery I was
going up at least a 100 per hour, I'm know at 85,578 Load Count
I tried this fix from http://blog.lynxworks.eu/?p=34
/dev/sda {
apm = 255
spindown_time = 0
}
sudo update-rc.d hdparm defaults
That didn't fix it so I tired 244, no go..
I then tried a fix I saw on thinkwiki
sudo hdparm -B 254 /dev/sda
So far the count has finally stopped, hopefully this will stay, I really
can't afford to replace the HD right now.
