[chris <1222313@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry...I've just tested under Lucid with bootable flashdisk. (kernel 2.6.32-38-generic)
- 1st testing : no delay
- 2nd testing : 30 seconds delay but OpenOffice 3.2 no freezing
- 3rd testing : 60 seconds delay  but OpenOffice 3.2 no freezing

I found different behavior here while did 3rd testing, while HDD sleep &
pressing ctrl-s to save document in OO then closed & reopen file (whole
process only took 3-5 secs), HDD was still sleeping. HDD woke up again
60 seconds later.

Looks like OO did caching saved file in system or RAM so it can be done
while HDD sleeping without making OO freeze.

I'll do further testing with Precise & other applications.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed

Title:
  0bc2:2300 [HP Pavillion dm3-1109TU] External HDD goes into low power
  mode delaying saving by 10-20 seconds

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I found that my 0bc2:2300 Seagate USB HDD with NTFS goes into low
  power mode delaying saving LO files by 10-20 seconds.

  250 GB Seagate Expansion Portable Drive
  ST902504EXM101-RK

  I don't know which part number is right, looks different what is written in the HDD sticker & box: (even same S/N)
  - P/N: 9SD2A2-500 (HDD sticker)
  - PN:9SC2M2-572 (box)

  sudo hdparm -C /dev/sdb1:
  /dev/sdb1:
   drive state is: unknown

  Neither of the following stopped the driver from entering a low power state:
  sudo hdparm -B 255 /dev/sdb1
  sudo hdparm -B 254 /dev/sdb1
