Package: hdparm Version: 9.43-1.1 Followup-For: Bug #725884 Stephen,
I am also experiencing this bug. As a workaround, I added the following line to root's crontab file: hdparm -y /dev/sdb >/dev/null I tried using: "hdparm -S 12 -B 127 /dev/sdb" but "hdparm -C /dev/sdb" always reports the drive state is: active/idle.
