Hey citizens of the world 
What do you think of that?
this is crazy cycles count and lifetime estimates just after two years of using.
i don’t hear any strange noices or sound of constant head parking, i can’t say i observe such behaviour with another brands as well
Chears.
The life-time count seems fine. I mean there’s 8760 hours in a year so 2 years would be 17520 power on hours.
The load/unload is another matter. An and far as I understand, not so good to have too many of those.
I disabled all the idle_b timers on my seagate drives for this reason following JM’s video:
But I have yet to find a similar tool that works on Toshiba drives.
Should i put all my seagates to idle_a? Could you share cli command?
or this could be enough: SeaChest_PowerControl -d PD<#> --idle_b disable ?
doesn’t look there is one
I used this:
openSeaChest_PowerControl -d all --idle_b disable
and this to check if it worked:
openSeaChest_PowerControl --showEPCSettings -d all
PS I can only use it with an elevated cmd, not powershell as will just open a cmd window from powershell anyway but then you can’t see what happens.
you can call cmd from powershell and proceed in there, i use it constatntly 
thank you for your participation. i think i just fugured how to stop this cycle count to grow on toshibas: you should set device policy to default w/o caching in device manager under policy tab
UPD: no, not helping
