Comment 9 for bug 772273

Reopening (confirming) this bug, as still present in Ubuntu 13.04;
Even though uninstalling hdapsd is indeed a working fix (or work-around), I believe the kernel (or installer/automatic sw updater) should ultimately detect that the HD installed is an SSD, and thereby skip the install/enablement of hdapsd.

It might be that this shouldn't be reported as a bug in the first place, but rather as a feature request/suggested improvement. This is really not for me to say, so please feel free to convert & accept my apologies for reopening!
