Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Adding hdparm to system start-up Post 302353942 by Corona688 on Wednesday 16th of September 2009 03:02:13 PM

Did you start the service? You've told it you want to start when the system boots, but if the system hasn't booted since you made that change...

I have no idea what your distro is so I'm not entirely sure what the correct way to manually start it is, but it might be /etc/init.d/hdparm start.

Someone would need root access to lock that drive, by the way. Just a user couldn't do it.
