What's the gain in parking the head manually if it's done anyway when the disk spins down (for whatever reason)?


It seems you're completely missing the whole point of this discussion,
which was how to implement the hard disk active protection system that
IBM offers under windows for its laptops, that will park the disk when
it detects that e.g. the laptop is falling off a table.

Does that imply that we have software to detect falling off a table?
