["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

** Description changed:

  WDC WD7500BPVT 750GB Advanced format HDD
- changing dirty_ratio or dirty_background_ratio prevents freezes but it slows down HDD R/W operations
  deadline scheduler is selected
  parted informs that partitions are aligned
  logical sectors are 512B while physical sectors are 4096 bytes
  hdparm informs speed 96MB/s
  Programs startup is slow.
  S.M.A.R.T assessment is OK.
- 
  HDD operations make system unusable.
  
+ WORKAROUND: Change default dirty_ratio = 60 to 5, and
+ dirty_background_ratio = 40 to 10. However, this slows down HDD R/W
+ operations.
