Michio's Death Drive Mac OS

Michio
Feel the earth under your feet
And walk foot follows foot into the sea
Watch your step, read the sign
Learn to swim or learn to sink
Or stand with the ocean to your neck and sunken feet
You're the mask on my face
At the masquerade painted black
You can take a place and a table if they even let you in
Feel the earth and dig it up and put yourself in the hole
When the tide comes in you'll never feel anything again
You know how a finger folds
And you know what you need to breathe
Our hands catch on everything
When we're not asleep
I drive too fast at night
Because accidents happen to other men
And not me
Walk into the sea

You read that right.

Quick link to the fix before I get to my usual rambling: hdapm. Install it and it will automatically set itself to auto-start on each boot and disable the auto park feature for all your drives.

Under Linux you can also use the hdparm command. Please note that you still need to fix your Mac OS X system with hdapm though as it will by default reset the power management on each boot!!
hdparm -B 255 [device]
or, if that throws an error
hdparm -B 254 [device]

device is usually /dev/sda.

My usual rambling as to the background on this problem follows…. 🙂

Inside each of your modern hard disk drives, there is a head 'lifter' ramp that the heads are parked on when the disks are not spinning. On older drives, they parked on the media, but times were different back then… the bit densities were lower, the heads floated on a thicker cushion of air, and more importantly, there was room for a layer of lubricant material to be baked onto the disks, kind of like the nonstick coating on cookware. This prevented a condition known as ‘stiction' which causes the heads to stick to a disc once they settle down. On a modern drive, if you get the heads onto the platter somehow with it spun down, they will stick instantly and tenaciously. The drive usually has firmware routines that induce vibration and make all sorts of silly noises to shake them loose if it happens…

Anyway, the lifter ramp is not a bad idea in itself. Mobile hard drives used it for years to keep the heads safely locked away and prevent scratching / head 'crashes' when the drive experiences shock and vibe in handling while powered off. Later drives would also retract the heads if they detected vibration nearing limits using a small accelerometer on the drive. Another variant also used the accelerometer to detect if the system was entering a free fall and would park the heads before impact.

Unfortunately, some goofbag, probably at Western Digital, did some testing and figured out that a drive left spinning with the heads unloaded used less power due to reduced aerodynamic drag but was still reasonably fast to return to service on user interaction. They based the Caviar Green series drives on this 'feature' and it seemed okay….

Until the hundreds of thousands of load/unload cycles destroyed the drives in very very short order. Super markup man mac os. OOPSIE NOODLES!!

Many other hard drives also support this same method of operation but do not enable it by default, under the Advanced Power Management feature set. The Western Decrepit drives enforce it by default unless you hit them with the wdidle utility and disable it.

Extremely realistic siege warfare simulator mac os. Welp, guess what Apple decided to enable, by default, to be all 'helpful'?

Here are SMART readouts from a potpourri of Mac systems and drives stewing in my pot.

Note that many hard drives are specified for 300,000 lifetime load/unload cycles. https://software-lists.weebly.com/browser-software-free-download-for-windows-7.html. Under aggressive power management settings in average use, the drive may reach this in only a couple of months!!

When the load mechanism wears out, the drive usually exhibits a rapidly increasing amount of read errors. You can usually get your data back, but no guarantees here – I did see one just show up stone dead suddenly when the ramps wore through and the heads BROKE RIGHT OFF.

Where it gets worrisome and silly: the latter set of SMART results are from a Mac Mini *SERVER*, running Mac OS X *SERVER*. Why, Apple? Why did you feel the need to make a SERVER OS aggressively try to save power at the expense of turning the whole thing prematurely into e-waste? WAS THIS REALLY AN IMPROVEMENT?!

update: this little freakshow. OVER ONE MILLION. Convert vhs betamax s vhs to digital with vidbox for mac. SUUUUUPER JAAAACKPOT!!! YOU RULE THE UNIVERSE! TROLL, DAMSEL, PEASANT, CATAPULT, JOUST MULTIBALL MADNESS! THE STORM IS COMING, RETURN TO YOUR HOME! DO NOT PANIC! DOHO!!

Death
Feel the earth under your feet
And walk foot follows foot into the sea
Watch your step, read the sign
Learn to swim or learn to sink
Or stand with the ocean to your neck and sunken feet
You're the mask on my face
At the masquerade painted black
You can take a place and a table if they even let you in
Feel the earth and dig it up and put yourself in the hole
When the tide comes in you'll never feel anything again
You know how a finger folds
And you know what you need to breathe
Our hands catch on everything
When we're not asleep
I drive too fast at night
Because accidents happen to other men
And not me
Walk into the sea
