1. udisks1 will soon be dropped from debian and ubuntu, and probably from other major distros as well. it's replaced by udisks2. 2. the only udisks1 feature that was used in m-p-m was the disk spindown. its usefullness is questionable, especially when you have an SSD. 3. udisks2 doesn't seem to have neither API nor command-line tools for the spindown feature. 4. spindown support has been dropped in gnome-power-manager in 2011, https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-power-manager/commit/?id=d97a988246d34f4cd38b7ee1335c9b500c7c522f 5. it also has been dropped in xfce-power-manager in 2014, http://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-power-manager/log/?qt=grep&q=disk+spin+down
