WDC WD30EFRX LCC count

[toba476]

I have an LCC count rising  app. 500/per day on my new WD30EFRX. Onother WD20EFRX  in the same system (Win7) only shows 55 after 2 years in total. I opened case [Deleted for privacy] on Nov. 25th. No answer up to now!!!

 I’m not going to accept this. Even this an private issue,  I’m running bussiness with WD on HDD drives for my company and mightI feel forced to use other contacts.

AN ANSWER IS HIGHLY APPRECITAED!

It could to be related to power saving.

From wikipedia:

 "Count of load/unload cycles into head landing zone position.

The typical lifetime rating for laptop (2.5-in) hard drives is 300,000 to 600,000 load cycles.Some laptop drives are programmed to unload the heads whenever there has not been any activity for about five seconds.Many Linux installations write to the file system a few times a minute in the background.As a result, there may be 100 or more load cycles per hour, and the load cycle rating may be exceeded in less than a year."

This link talks about a way to reduce LCC in some WD disk. Just take a look till you get a better answer, dont try what they do.
