Regardless of Energy Saver settings mac sleeps hard disk, drive keeps turning off and on every couple of seconds and system unresponsive while the drive spins on

Although Energy Saver "Put hard disk to sleep when possible" setting is off, OS X sleeps hard disk after a couple secs of inactivity.

While I'm working, hard disk keeps turning off and on every couple of seconds and system unresponsive while the drive spins on.


OSX version is 10.8.5. Mac is a mid 2009 MBP.


Very very very annoying!!!

OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)
