I can not believe that it is normal for a basic, non-enterprise disk to overheat, not even when it is permanently used.
If disabling power management causes any other issue than decreased battery life by max. 5%, then this is obviously some disk/firmware related bug.

This is why I guess the blacklist approach mentioned by Jakob
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi-
support/+bug/59695/comments/515) is more straightforward.
