I’ve already tried changing power management settings of Windows but with no result. As for the BIOS, I have a very simple BIOS with no settings for power management at all. Only HDDScan cured the problem. For others, other programs worked, such as hdparm, quietHDD, CrystalDiskInfo etc. For me, just HDDScan worked.
Again, this problem with the annoying frequent parking of the head hasn’t occured just in my case. It has happened to many people with different computer configurations, so, it can’t be generated by specific power management settings of Windows or of BIOS. It’s a widely spread problem, as can be seen here, here and in other topics.
