- # This script adjusts hard drive APM settings using hdparm. The hardware
- # defaults (usually hdparm -B 128) cause excessive head load/unload cycles
- # on many modern hard drives. We therefore set hdparm -B 254 while on AC
- # power. On battery we set hdparm -B 128, because the head parking is
- # very useful for shock protection.
