Hi,

there are some reports that Ubuntu GNU/Linux 7.10 "kills harddisks":
http://ubuntudemon.wordpress.com/2007/10/28/laptop-hardrive-killer-bug-how-to-discover-whether-you-are-affected/

I can confirm this behaviour for FreeBSD 6.2 STABLE 200710 i386 and
smartmontools-5.37_2 from the portscollection. My Load_Cycle_Count is
increasing about 1 cycle per minute. So maybe Smartmontools is causing
this problem?

Best greetings
Thomas
