These Caviar Green harddrives are famous for having a short life span and slow transfer speeds because of this IntelliPower feature which automatically returns the drive's headers to their parking position after being idle for 8 seconds or so... (I learned all that in the past hour after wondering why my newly built PC is so slow and why the hard drive scored 5.4 in the windows assessment tool).
My question is: Is there's any way to disable this stupid IntelliPower feature? a firmware update maybe?
