Description

Laptop hard drives can be protected by a userspace daemon that reacts to HDAPS motion sensor events.

It is useful mainly for older laptops with supported spinning disks and accelerometer hardware. It does not help SSDs, and incorrect sensor or device configuration can reduce usefulness, so verify supported hardware before enabling the service.

How to run

hdapsd.service
