Title:
  HDD spindown is very frequent

Status in “hdparm” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On 12.04 both alpha 1 and 2, the spindown of laptop harddisk is very
  frequent. Mostly few times per minute. It is annoying and I suppose it
  can cause damage to the harddisk. Last but not least it does not save
  battery life.

  Thank you for considering to change default values.
