Thanks, I did this, and it even worked for my other WDC WD2002FYPS-01U1B0, which was on 12 seconds (the EARS were on 8s as you said), and now all three drives have a 120s delay before parking. That

I am glad it worked.

should be sufficient. It didn't work for the VelociRaptor in my PC, just to mention.

Disks from the Green series support some features that help the enviroment. Among them is having lower rpm (usually 5400) and the intellipark feature that you set to 120s.

If i am not mistaken, VelociRaptor is the low latency 10K rpm drive, so it's not surprising that it doesn't support this. Only drives from the Green series do.
