justanotherjoe: This bug is not that about disk parking. Here we're dealing with disk access, which is obviously related, but different.
christopherdstamper: Enabling laptop-mode can solve your problem, in particular when on battery. Edit /etc/default/acpi-support and set ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=true, then enable disk management: set LM_BATT_HD_IDLE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=30 (or similar value, in seconds) and CONTROL_HD_POWERMGMT=1. Then restart. This bug is strange, can come from different issues, both software- and hardware-related.
