** Description changed: My hard disk temperature is pretty high (above 45 Celsius degrees) even if I just read an article without any other activity. Also, I can hear the noise of the hard disk permanently, at every 3 or 4 seconds it is moving. I have a Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo Mobile V6545 laptop with Ubuntu 9.04. + + So: iotop -o (after previously installed iotop) gives me, for a fraction + of a second, commands like: gnome power management, kjournald, pidgin + and one or two more. But each dissapeared very quickly. The Command + column is empty now, for a long time has been empty. + + The temperature (sudo hddtemp /dev/sda) is 48 Celsius degrees now. I + remarked (repeating it) that the temperature starts decreasing after I + unplugg the AC adapter so that the laptop is running on battery only. + But it was 58 Celsius degree, with Pidgin running only. + + The annoying click of the hard disk can be heard at each 3 or 4 seconds. + + The hard disk is WD3200BEVT. Its specification may be found at + http://wdc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/wdc.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=2670&p_created=#jumper.
