Im not sure this has been suggested elsewhere but I noticed 6.502 reboot spins the HD down so hard that I can hear the whining down. Other distros that I have on the ExtHD doesnt spin the internal HD so strongly. No vibrations - probably no great harm done - just wonder whether there can be a better shutdown reboot sequence that is softer on the drives.
Pl remove to a better location if this is the wrong place for a pre- suggestion.
