Actually, I don't think this bug was ever fixed. IIRC we suggested putting in a configurable time for checking the SMART mon status but the gnome dev said that the bug was due to buggy hard drive firmware and so he wasn't going to do anything about it. It's a pain because each time udisks2 is updated I have to edit the source to make the check time longer and then rebuild and re-install it on each of my machines. It seems the "buggy" firmware is quite common in WD drives.
