[Bug 59695] Re: High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime

It's ok for me that my disk saves power while on battery, but I cannot
understand why once the read head is unloaded, every minute it is
loaded again. If the PC is idle who is causing the load cycle?
There might be a process that every minute accesses the disk, which is
not ok (in my opinion)
