dynhdparm - a very simple script to deactivate unused harddiscs with "hdparm -y"

Description

dynhdparm is a script to deactivate harddiscs with "hdparm -y" if they are not used. I had this running as cron job on a fileserver.

Usage: dynhdparm /dev/hda
Or: dynhdparm /dev/hda /dev/hdb

Note: This script will not work to disable devices where the root partition resides on.

Requirements

Note: Both programs must be available in your $PATH
