If you want to change your drive behaviour from the vendor supplied
defaults see "man hdparm"
Seems to me information on what values are appropriate, and whether
there are real problems are sorely missing.
I can't tell whether there is anyone here competant to say there is a
problem, it seems people think there might be, but we're all ignorant in
this respect.
Is there a place to get good information? Has anyone tried any of the
relevant disk drive vendors, or the smartmontools people?
