Hello,

cd-dvd.xml seems to be outdated in some places. The following patch 
is an attempt to fix this a bit.

1) hdparm -a8 is too low value especially for DVD drives. I propose 
-a256 instead (both mine DVD drives use it). There is no harm if 
value will exceed range supported by the drive: hdparm will just 
use the highest possible value.

2) Current documentation mentions that there is no general way to 
set speed of SCSI drive, but there is: sdparm as of version 1.03 
supports --command=speed=[speed in kB/s]:

Comments are welcome.

Best regards,
Andrew
