By default, we do nothing to set any disk power values. It's arguable that the configuration file should make it clearer to the user that enabling aggressive power management will result in a shorter hard drive life, but it's also an inevitable consequence of enabling that aggressive power management. The stock install is entirely safe in this respect.
