I have. But what you have is an abstract range of numbers which apply
some sort of power management, but without any definition of what those
numbers mean, other than more or less power management. You don't get
something like - if the drive has been idle for five minutes, or X
seconds, you can get the drive to park the head.
Some drives have that, some don't. Most also honour the specific timeout
setting via hdparm -S. (-S 0 being don't stop)
