28 Writing an integer value to this file will take the heads of the
29 respective drive off the platter and block all I/O operations
30 for the specified number of milliseconds.
32 - If the device does not support the unload heads feature,
33 access is denied with -EOPNOTSUPP.
34 - The maximal value accepted for a timeout is 30000
36 - A previously set timeout can be cancelled and disk can resume
37 normal operation immediately by specifying a timeout of 0.
38 - Some hard drives only comply with an earlier version of the
39 ATA standard, but support the unload feature nonetheless.
40 There is no safe way Linux can detect these devices, so this
41 is not enabled by default. If it is known that your device
42 does support the unload feature, then you can tell the kernel
43 to enable it by writing -1. It can be disabled again by
45 - Values below -2 are rejected with -EINVAL
