I've been playing with the values of hdparm -B and hdparm -S for a while now, but I haven't been able to achieve an acceptable frequency of spindowns with any combination of settings. My WD2500BEVS and many other hdds out there don't behave as they should, so I'm glad that a safe choice has been made.
