In response to a previous post about using the hdparm command as a

I can't find this - who said you could/should use 'hdparm' as a software
write-blocker?




A regular 'man hdparm' gave me this:  

       -r     Get/set read-only flag for device.  When set, write
              operations are not permitted on the device.

Newer tried it myself tho.
