It isn't different and since I can't disable the energy saving, I need
to find out what does touch the drive. Assumed it's tumblerd for Xfce
and something similar for GNOME2, than I need to find out, if there's a
way to disable touching the drive by tumblerd, without removing
tumblerd.

However, I now definitively know that it's neither the drive's nor the
kernel's fault.

To use idle3ctl I suspect I need to know how to open and close the case,
but I don't know how to do it:
