[ltp] Q: HD active protection sys for Linux???

[Don Perley]

The last I knew, no.

I would add that for my typicall useage, the "airbag drive" doesn't make 
much difference.
What it does is park the heads when it thinks it is being jostled too 
much (like a drop).
Generally whenever I move a laptop I close the lid first,  which results 
in parked heads anyway if you configure to suspend on closing.  If you 
were to drop an open laptop you are as likely to lose the display or 
crack the case, either of which is a more expensive repair than 
replacing the hard drive.
