P.S. I have not managed to change heads unload timeout for Toshiba L200 using hdparm. In your case due to high G-Sense_Error_Rate increasing timeout might be dangerous.So, you own one of these drives?
I have a Toshiba L200 HDWK105 SATA 3 500G CMR disk as a secondary storage. I do not like that heads unload timeout is just a few seconds and such state is hidden, so udisks2 wakes it up every 10 minutes to poll for its SMART state. I see a lot of warnings in docs for HDD tools and I am unsure how to stay on the safe margin during experiments.
I do not expect anything directly related to the original subject in this thread, but to not hijack this thread, you may ask your questions e.g. in response to
