[Bug 59695] Re: High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime

[Vincenzo Ciancia]

I have not followed the whole thread. Right after installing hardy, I
was about to send my laptop to repair because I was experiencing random
deadlocks with high temperature. Then after some upgrade the problem
vanished and indeed I had the symptoms of this bug. 

So the question is:

has this bug been fixed in general for hardy, or are you actually saying
that every hardy user could burn his/her laptop disk if not going trough
the steps that the linked webpage mentions? Let's state it clearly since
in the latter case at least I will advice people that still didn't
upgrade not to use hardy until we are reasonably sure that we are not
going to damage their disk.
