You see, that is why I switched backed to Windows. Linux is great but it sucks!!

I searched every single website every post about this but there is no solution. I always use a cooling pad under the laptop for the temp to stay at the range of (40 - 44) C. !! if I dont use a cooling pad it would hit the 60's. I checked HD activity ... I didn't find any process writing to HD .. its completely idle. I used every single LINUX distro to find a way out ... but NOTHING ... its not about ubuntu. its about linux and Western Digital. I use ubuntu 10.04 now ... and still. its really the time for some one to act on this ... its really getting serious and annoying. -- HDD unusual high temperature and activity in Ubuntu Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394826 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: 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.
