hdparm configuration help



Hello,

After the recent udev + hdparm problems, I'm thinking
of reconfiguring hdparm (hdparm currently is not
configured, just reinstalled, so I'm assuming it's
currently using default settings)


This is the output of `hdparm -v -i /dev/hda`:


/dev/hda:

Could someone tell me what settings are appropiate for
my hard discs? I tried before with, what didn't really
seem to push things, but problems with modules not
loading reappeared

Thanks,
