One thing wrong might be jumpers, Other than that, I suspect something

Thanks for the good ideas.

This is a WD Caviar Green and the jumpers are only documented to slow
down the SATA by one notch and add spread spectrum clocking for rf noise

Wanted to be sure that people knew "-S 120" doesn't mean "spin down after two minutes."

I'll have to try to check for udev.  Maybe running lsof in a loop will
catch it.

Did you take out the rule for that? I'm not a guru, can't tell you which rule without looking it up, but I have found it, since my hot backup drive on a USB dongle goes down and stays that way. I bet someone will remind us which rule checks that before you can look. ;-)
