Persistant and Persistance are not english words.

I also took the oportunity to change "disk" (which should really be
spelt "disc" anyway) to "device" in the Detail output and other
places, as it may sometimes be a disc drive, but might also be a
partition or some other device.

Thanks:
 I had
     larray_size = array_size << 9;
 when array_size was a "long" and larray_size was "long long"
 so some high bits got lost.
 It is now 
     larray_size = array_size;
     larray_size <<= 9;
 which should work correctly.
