Re: Mini-PC comparison benchmarks - MK802 vs. UG802 vs. GK802
@linuxium Quotelinuxiumthe CPU scaling governor is set at "on demand" rather than "performance" so there is another potential improvement here. The kernel I'm using for the C7 was compiled using a...

I have recently been investigating the suitability of small 2.5" pocket disk drives in a 24/7 application as the main drive on an Arm (Pogoplug, Dockstar, etc.) server. These drives are nice to use...

syong, Cool! glad it works. Looks like yours took the same time as my build did on the Goflex Net. There are quite a few modules that we don't really need, but I did not take them out. I figure...

@restamp, I use a 2.5" HDD as the boot drive for my kernel building Goflex Net. I was aware of this problem with the "green" drives, so I used the manufacturer's tool to set the sleep period to...

It is a special WesternDigital "feature"! :-) Their 2.5" and Green 3.5" drives tend to park their heads after a few seconds of idle time (I think the default on my 2.5" scorpio blue drives was 8...

- Most of Seagate drives work with hdparm - Try hdparm first, if it does not work, try sdparm.

This particular problem should be limited to WD only. I am not aware of another HDD manufacturer with such a aggressive firmware based idle timer. As bodhi said, drives from other manufacturers should...
