Sets the persistent standby timeout for an ATA drive. This
configuration is stored in
<filename>/etc/udisks2/IDENTIFIER.conf</filename> and is
applied every time the drive is connected (e.g. at start-up,
hotplug, or resume from suspend).

<para>
The standby timeout value (0-255). A value of zero means
"timeouts are disabled": the device will not automatically
enter standby mode. Values from 1 to 240 specify multiples
of 5 seconds, yielding timeouts from 5 seconds to 20
minutes. Values from 241 to 251 specify from 1 to 11 units
of 30 minutes, yielding timeouts from 30 minutes to 5.5
hours. A value of 252 signifies a timeout of 21 minutes. A
value of 253 sets a vendor-defined timeout period between
8 and 12 hours, and the value 254 is reserved. 255 is
interpreted as 21 minutes plus 15 seconds. This is similar
to the <option>-S</option> option in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>hdparm</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
