I see nothing in 'man hdparm' about how it uses the config file. I'm not positive it does, that may be wholly up to the system init script.
hdparm's not a persistent process anyway, so I'm not sure why they decided it belonged in a daemon. I'd just put that line of yours in /etc/local.start or whatever your equivalent is instead of trying to use the system service. (You probably wouldn't need the 'sudo' if you put it there.)

SYSLOG(8) System Logging SYSLOG(8)
NAME
syslog-ng, syslogd
DESCRIPTION
There are different syslog daemon implementations supported as the system's syslog service, currently syslogd, syslog-ng and rsyslogd
The first installed daemon activates itself for the syslog service. Starting with openSUSE-11.2, it is rsyslogd, before it was syslog-ng.
But this depends on the software selection during the installation.
The name of the daemon used as syslog service is specified in the
SYSLOG_DAEMON variable in /etc/sysconfig/syslog.
The yast2 sysconfig module provides a comfortable way to switch to another installed daemon and restart the service.
The /etc/init.d/syslog init script is able to handle all supported daemons.
