Re: [ITP] hdparm 6.9

I would like to contribute my Cygwin port of hdparm.

Hdparm (http://sourceforge.net/projects/hdparm) is a Linux tool to get/set ATA/SATA drive parameters and driver settings.

A HDIO_DRIVE_CMD ioctl emulation layer is used to provide the drive related command subset of hdparm on Windows.
It should work on XP SP2 and 2003 if driver provides ATA_PASS_THROUGH. It also supports 2000 and XP SP1 if undocumented IDE_PASS_THROUGH is available.

packaging and package looks fine. GTG

Even -M (acoustic settings) does work, impressive port.
One might want to note somewhere that it requires Administrator rights. (which is good)
