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

[revelationman]

I went back to Ubuntu  after speaking to the Seagate Tech I have a 5 year warranty and I have another drive (Seagate) with  a 5 year warranty.  
I personally cannot stand Vista to me it is Windows ME all over again it is bloated and with over 50 million lines of  code ( so that say) it does not make sense. 
Hopefully the Ubuntu team  can figure this out, the word from Seagate is their drives can run Linux. 
So I will wait for a patch if  drive dies so what I will send it back for warranty and then place the other drive in and let that die just one big cycle
I feel the issue is within Linux that is my feeling it could be something very silly  maybe a  power management setting just for laptops who knows.
But I am keeping the faith .
