Hi,
my new Samsung Q45 containing a Toshiba drive
also has the problem of a high amount of load_unload
cycles. So i added it with this rules to /etc/storage-fixup.conf:
---
# Reported drive model: Toshiba MK2546GSX
rule samsung-q45
dmi system-manufacturer SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.
dmi system-product-name SQ45S70S
ata model TOSHIBA MK2546GSX
act hdparm -B 254 $DEV
---
Perhaps you'd want to include this? Attached you find the
output of dmidecode and hdparm -I as quested.
Thanks,
Frank
