when power is disconnected on a eee PC 1015PX, the harddrive makes a clicking sound approx. every 10 seconds.
this is only the case while running ubuntu, not during boot and not when running other operation systems.

it can be temporarily fixed by

sudo hdparm -B 254 /dev/sda

which presumably consumes more power.
the preset value is 128
