I've already told Akumar offlist, just writing it to the list for
documentation:
that auto sleep mode on seagates can be disabled on linux (dunno about
*BSD) as well with sdparm. I don't remember the args for sure, but
probably something like
'sdparm -c STANDBY /dev/sdX#'
then
'sdparm -s /dev/sdX#'
to save.
