My question is about why is Stablebit Scanners APM CAUSING high load cycle count. I use both Stable Drivepool & Stablebit Scanner. I have in the last year or so have had six Seagate 3 & 4 TB drives less than a year old go over the 300,000 load cycle count. I discovered that this only happens when the Stablebit scanner Advance power manager is set (checked/ticked on) Maximum Performance. When (unchecked/untick off) there is no increase or just one two at the most in over a time period of weeks. I have to run APM unchecked, but when ever the computer is rebooted APM resets to default check/tick on and the high load cycle count starts again. Does anyone know why this is occurring? Also I have the bios (S.M.A.R.T.) disabled, but I have tried it both with the bios enable and disabled. Info, my server is built with an Asrock Z87 Extreme 4 MB Intel core i7 CPU and 8 GB of ram.
