utility for drive disturbing

Good time of the day. I want to install an utility for disturbing (writing a byte every N seconds in order to stop it move its head to a landing zone) a mounted HDD until it is unmounted because I have the one of those well known green models from WD that lands its head every 8 seconds, AFAIK. Bec
