Some distros add an rc script for hdparm whenever it's installed.  Debian 
doesn't.  

Others have hdparm or "harddisk" settings in their configuration 
directories where you can add switch options that will get passed to 
hdparm during boot.

Perhaps the package maintainer for hdparm could consider similar things 
for Debian.  

On the systems that do this, no settings are changed or anything done to 
the hdparm settings without the user changing these files, there's just a 
nice place to put all of it pre-configured to accept the hdparm info that 
gets installed with hdparm. 

It's more convenient but not a necessity...
