Personally I would recommend 'apt-get hwtools' and then edit /etc/init.d/hwtools to add the hdparm commands you wish. The default version of the file installed has a place for exactly this stuff. Look over http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html#s-sysvinit for details if you really want to write your own script. Cheers!
