CARP!  That's embarrasing I just realized the CAPITAL M!

anyway, we'll see how it does now:
[code]
root at mythtv:~# hdparm -tT /dev/hda

/dev/hda:
 Timing cached reads:   1484 MB in  2.00 seconds = 740.26 MB/sec
 Timing buffered disk reads:  184 MB in  3.02 seconds =  61.00 MB/sec
root at mythtv:~# hdparm -M128 /dev/hda

/dev/hda:
 setting acoustic management to 128
 acoustic     =  0 (128=quiet ... 254=fast)
root at mythtv:~# hdparm -tT /dev/hda

/dev/hda:
 Timing cached reads:   1468 MB in  2.00 seconds = 732.65 MB/sec
 Timing buffered disk reads:  182 MB in  3.00 seconds =  60.60 MB/sec
[/code]
