I forgot this since I'm used to "tune" any HD I install with=20 HGSTs DriveFeatureTool (under DOS) since sometimes these drives work on a=20 real RAID Controller (like 3ware or ARECA devices) where I can't set any=20 of these ATA features. But in general I think anything that `atacontrol cap ad0` shows should be=20 tunable with `atacontrol ...` in the near future... Not to forget the possibility to read the drives temperature :) And some documentation for end users needs to be done, especially for AAC=20 and APM, I'm myself not really sure about the values... But I'd volunteer to investigate... =2DHarry > > /Daniel Eriksson > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-current-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" --nextPart1287150.sM88i2VdPb Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBDOJprBylq0S4AzzwRAtgwAJ9onVFkIncY7wjbAYVNfrSd7PnvuACaA/2T C76UudpGvqjM3568ipHwsSQ= =5LBL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1287150.sM88i2VdPb--
