Hello!
I've been trying to get the standby of my harddisk work for hours. I am
actually really frustrated :-) . My problem is that whenever I but my
hdd to standby, it stays there for a few seconds and then comes back to
work again. So I first thought that there must be any program accessing
the harddisk on a regular basis. So I ran lm-profiler - but nothin'.
There is no program accessing my hdd.
I tried both. laptop-mode and hdparm to get my hdd to standby.
*/etc/init.d/laptop-mode start (default configuration)*
and
*hdparm -S 5 /dev/sda*
I don't get any error messages. My hdd just doesn't want to spin down
permanently...
It's an SATA drive (/dev/sd*).
Any hint?
Cheers,
Jay
