I have now this information about it's age : formulajay wrote : "Thank you for the recommendations, and yes I have backed up all the important data that I want/need to save from my laptop. I just recently received this laptop as a hand-me-down. It used to be a laptop that was used in a business lease, and it ran windows for its entire life. I installed gobuntu as soon as I received it and ran into this information about load cycle count a day or two after the install, and that is when I found out that my hdd is about to fail. It will be interesting to see where this goes, I do have backups of my data and a spare hdd from my old laptop, so worst case scenario is I have to grab the old one and re-install after this one takes a dump, but it would be nice to have a permanent fix to this problem. Once again, thank you." -- Hard drive spindown should be configurable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/17216 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
