Bug Description
Binary package hint: hdparm
Configurations made in /etc/hdparm.conf are ignored. I configured my external harddisk (connected using eSATA) to power down after 60 minutes:
/dev/sdc {
spindown_time = 242
}
This setting ist ignored. When manually setting the Idle timeout (hdparm -S 242 /dev/sdc) everything works as expected.
