Abstract
Aspects of increasing the quality and reliability of desktop class storage disks in enterprise storage applications are described. The aspects include monitoring a number of idle states and busy states in a disk drive, and limiting performance of read/write commands by the disk drive based on whether a sufficient number of idle states has been monitored to avoid exceeding a duty cycle rating of the disk drive.
