A little more on this, I found

http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Problem_with_hard_drive_clicking

it mentions

# hdparm -B 192 /dev/sda

for a similar Toshiba drive to mine, and sure enough it stops the
Load_Cycle count cranking up here along with the clicking I have
suddenly become extremely sensitized to.

Apparently you should stick it in /etc/rc.local to make it stick.
