Having just checked Windows and seen that it lets you specify a timeout down to 1 minute with no warnings, I don't think we want to make it more difficult for people to do the same thing on FreeBSD. I don't know if atacontrol already does this, but maybe we could have a log entry, for example: > atacontrol /dev/ad0 spindown 60 spin-down timer set to 60 seconds. -- Bruce Cran
