hdparm -C seems to work on the PATA laptops I have,
but it always returns standby on the SATA laptops I have.
Is this a known issue?
thanks,

Yes, due to incomplete implemetation of the HDIO_* ioctls in libata.
Somebody else posted a patch here recently to fix it.
I don't know if Jeff picked it up or not.
Cheers

Correction on that. Jeff has indeed picked up the fix,
as of his "pull" request on Ocober 11:
