Using Debian's 7.3 via apt-get experimental - is that OK or would you like me to
compile the upstream?
No, what you have is good, thanks.
cu:~# hdparm -K1 /dev/hda
/dev/hda:

I just find it odd that the drive rejects the command,
but Seagate do seem to be the first to drop older features nowadays.
But I thought their PATA units might have kept that functionality.
I have some modern seagate SATA drives here -- I'll try it on those too,
just for my own education.
Thanks.
