Title:
  [Wily] wakes up green drives without a valid reason

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  a minimalist Wily server install, around 4.5 GiB small does cause
  endless spin downs and spin ups, so that green drives get damaged. I
  maintain an around 37.5 GiB large Arch Linux install, quasi using the
  same software used by the Wily install and in addition a little bit
  more software, which isn't used by the Wily install. For Arch Linux I
  don't experience this issue. I expect the same for an Ubuntu install.

  I'm already hunting the culprit, see
  https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-studio-devel/2015-August/006570.html and
  https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-studio-devel/2015-August/006571.html,
  but run out of ideas.

  The claim the install is 2 GiB small is a typo, the backup archive is
  of that size.

  However, assumed Ubuntu won't contribute to
  http://andrewmcconnell.photoshelter.com/gallery/G0000oLuiBLHIsmM this
  "feature" should be removed from the defaults.

  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu Wily Werewolf (development branch)
  Release:	15.10

  Regards,
  Ralf
