hdparm and sdparm

[Kevin Faulkner]

hdparm is to IDE type devices as sdparm is to SCSI devices. I know that
Linux sees SATA devices as /dev/sd*, I also know that you need to build
your kernel with SCSI support if you plan on using any kind of SATA
device, does this mean that you would have to sdparm for SATA devices? I
really don't want to loose my hard drive experimenting, perhaps someone
knows, if not then I will experiment.
