Summary : Prevents the (notebook) hard disk from sleeping too often
Description :
Some ATA harddrives perform very frequent head unloads under Linux significantly shortening their lifespans.

Many drives make small clunking noise when they unload and/or reload their heads, so if you hear such noise frequently
(say, several times in a minute), it would be worth investigation. Drives usually implement Start_Stop_Count or similarly
named counter in their SMART attributes which can be accessed by running \"smartctl -a /dev/[hs]dX\" where \"/dev/[hs]dX\"
is the drive in question. If the counter is too high compared to the hours the drive has been running (which is also often
available in the SMART output), your hardware is likely to have this problem.
