I just bought new drives for 2k dollars because of this. Then I realised it was this kernel update.
Can confirm, retracts (192) and hdd's gets hard shutdowns. (Power cycle) also increases as if the PC had power loss. This will break many old drives! Backing to previous kernel solves it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-signed-hwe-6.5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2053041 Title: Issue when shutting down computer: internal hard drive is not shut down properly Status in linux-signed-hwe-6.5 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After the last kernel upgrade, I noticed that, in the S.M.A.R.T. monitor, parameter ID 192 "Power Off Retract Count" increased every time I turned off the system. I also noticed the "click" of the head parking when shutting down the computer. By restarting the computer with previous kernel version (6.5.0-15.15~22.04.1) the issue didn't happen, so I assume it's a kernel bug, that causes it to shut down the computer before hard drive is deactivated ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 22.04 Package: linux-image-6.5.0-17-generic 6.5.0-17.17~22.04.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 6.5.0-17.17~22.04.1-generic 6.5.8 Uname: Linux 6.5.0-17-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu82.5 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: unknown CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Tue Feb 13 16:35:55 2024 InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-10-02 (1228 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Release amd64 (20200731) SourcePackage: linux-signed-hwe-6.5 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to jammy on 2022-08-11 (550 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-signed-hwe-6.5/+bug/2053041/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
