I'm interested in collecting some opinions on Head Parking when it comes to Enterprise grade hard drives.

Is there any benefit to allowing head parking aside from power savings?

Is there any risk of preventing head parking, and having the head always flying over the media?

Always flying. Parking and starting increase wear and tear over time.
