Although I understand your desire, I don't see that it falls under acpid.
Hdparm can enable/disable the hard drive's write cache. From what I see of the
kernel source, apm nor acpi do anything with the hard drive. For read cache, I'm
not sure how you can modify that.
Personally, I'd be a little wary of caching things too agressively.

Thanks for the new acpi support!
I would like an small optimization:
more hard disk sleeps.
If I let my comptuter for 1 hour,
hard disk sleeps.
I don't know if it is controlled
by my BIOS or not.
In all case, I think
we could tweak disk accesses:
- when writing, only write to cache without writing on disk
- when reading, only read from cache and if we can not, read from disk
If we can act on this,
reduce the sleep timeout of the hard disk.
I saw that we can not tweak 'kupdated' periods.
Is there a mean to set this period ?
