hdd-speen keeps disks from spinning down, which can prolong their life. It's a daemon, and as such, it also applies these properties to newly connected disks.
Prerequisites:
* python3
* python3-pyinotify
* hdparm
Installing:
* Run: sudo ./install
It installs itself to /etc/boot.d and /etc/pm/sleep.d (since disk properties are lost on sleep). This works if your system doesn't use systemd, and you use pm-utils to suspend.
env contains a bunch of installation-specific settings.
Uninstalling:
* Run: hdd-speen-uninstall
Running:
* Run the daemon: hdd-speen
* Apply disk properties and close: hdd-speen --oneshot
