Does anyone know of a good tutorial, or howto on hard drives? I would like to understand a little better this part of the hardware before playing with hdparm. Some hdparm bash script examples would be also welcome.

 

Here is my script:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /etc/init.d/hdparm
#!/bin/bash
DRIVES="hda hdb"
SETTINGS="-d 1 -m 16 -c 1 -a 1 -q -u 1 -W 1"
case "$1" in
       start|restart)
               for dev in $DRIVES; do
                       hdparm $SETTINGS /dev/$dev
               done
       ;;
       stop)
       ;;
esac
