: One more question; how do you change the rpm value for a disk?

By over spinning the drive.  Most stepper motors have speed
multipliers that you can easily change with a couple of wires jumpered 
onto the controller board of the disk.  Please see
http://www.overspinning-hints.com/ for details :-)

Oh, wait, sorry.  disklabel -e ad1 and edit the value is the answer
I think you are looking for.
