What does it indicate. It was 3755 when I started the system today and growing over a few minutes. > hdparm -B /dev/sda /dev/sda: APM_level = 128 > Is your laptop something that is mostly off but only sometimes on? Or It is static and mostly off. I can keep it on if needed. It doesn't have to move around. But isn't there something I can run one time to know the issue. If I can at least ascertain that the issue is with the drive, I can try and get it replaced in warranty. I am unsure since the laptop came with FreeDOS and when booting on FreeDOS there is no disk noise. So difficult to convince the retailer that there is an issue with the drive.
