i will be doing the SSD + HD in optical bay combo. i always install hdapm on my drives to reduce the load cycle count vastly, and to stop clicking sounds from the head parking.

im just not sure how i will go about installing this for the optical bay drive without the OS on it. any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

does anyone have any workarounds for this situation? I'm just trying to make sure my optibay HDD remains healthy with low load cycle counts and remains quiet with no parking of the heads ever so often...

would installing hdapm normally affect the optibay HDD? or is there a certain way to allow it to affect it?
