In order to answer your queston (Load_Cycle_Count variations as seen by
smartctl under B2 ) I decided to recompile the kernel as that is a fairly
heavy loadwork.

This special value increases, if there is almost no load. Putting the hard
drive under heavy load will stop the increase. See

Ok so I left my T60 on all night (23 h 30 to 7 h 30 this morning)
Here is the new reading...

linux:~ # smartctl -a /dev/sda | grep Load_Cycle_Count
193 Load_Cycle_Count 0x0012 100 100 000 Old_age Always
- 2746
