I recently did a clean install of 20.04 on my server. In 18.04, I could spin down my mechanical drive with this line in hdparm.conf:

/dev/sda {
    spindown_time = 25
}

Now, the config file doesn't appear to have any effect. I can still set the spindown manually:

sudo hdparm -S 25 /dev/sda

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

During recent reboots hdparm.conf seems to work again. Maybe an update fixed this, I haven't changed anything on my system.
