I've tried reiserfs.  It used to bork my modules.conf so badly on
crashes that the machine became unbootable.  I switched to ext3 because
of that.

So far I did not have any luck with laptop-mode or noflushd.  Supposedly
laptop-mode works with ext3, but I wasn't able to get the hard disk to
spin down longer than 30 seconds.
