    Summary: HardDrive Active Protection System
    Description: 
    HardDrive Active Protection System.
    
    The APS is a protection system for the ThinkPads internal harddrive. A
    sensor inside the ThinkPad recognizes when the notebook is
    accelerated. A software applet then is triggered to park the harddisk.
    This way the risk of data loss in case of when the notebook is dropped
    is significantly reduced since the read/write head of the harddrive is
    parked and hence can't crash onto the platter when the notebook drops
    onto the floor.
    
    Note: requires kernel 2.6.28+ or patched previous versions,
    see http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/HDAPS
