I can't get "hdparm -S" to work at all.
Using "hdparm -S 1" should set the timeout to
5 seconds, but the drives stay active/idle all the
time. When I set to standby manually, the drives
stay on standby for days, and start up fine when
they are used. I know this because I logged status
every 30 minutes using crontab.
They just don't standby automatically.
I'm using 5 identical drives (see below for drive
info), with software RAID.
I don't have Raptors here anymore to try it with,
but "hdparm -S1 /dev/sd?" did work fine with them
when last tried.
What do you get when you try this:
hdparm -S1 -C /dev/sda;sleep 6; hdparm -C /dev/sda
??
