Editing hdparm.conf alone is not enough and as I wrote in my previous comment, you have to run 'sudo update-rc.d hdparm defaults' too so that the hdparm init script is added to the approperiate runlevels (2, 3, 4 and 5). Runlevel 2 is the last runlevel and scripts in this runlevel are executed last, you can verify this by running the 'runlevel' command after you log in.
