  • systemd

    The systemd System and Service Manager

    • Well you can do it manually with hdparm -y [/dev/your_disk]..., so it's just a matter of arranging to run that after boot and resume from sleep. """just""".

  • fatrace

    report system wide file access events

    • You can use fatrace from the package of the same name to trace file accesses by process, although it does have some issues with some btrfs subvolume layouts. My preferred way to use it is to cd to the root mount point of the drive, and then fatrace -ct.

  • udisks

    The UDisks project provides a daemon, tools and libraries to access and manipulate disks, storage devices and technologies.

    • The first is udisks2, which likes to check the SMART status every 10 minutes. If you configure sleep timeouts through gnome-disks, it creates a configuration file in /etc/udisks2/, which keeps it from doing that. Unfortunately, the config file is per-disk and has a name that depends on the disk.
